Overall, Bloomingdale's remains a renowned retail destination for those seeking high-quality products and attentive service, committed to maintaining its reputation for excellence in retailing worldwide.
Most of the service is very good but still came across a few snotty, probably racist, valley girl types in certain areas. I never buy from rude retail associates no matter how much I want something.
