Went to the BMV to renew ID and vehicle tags. Did the online save my spot and the wait at that time was 1hr 20 minutes. I drove there with 15 minutes left, did the check in through text notification and only waited another 10 minutes outside and then was sent a text to proceed to the Lobby. Only waited inside another 5 minutes and that was it. The staff member that helped me was very nice and courteous.Highly recommend going online first to answer any questions and to get all your ducks in a row before you go.
Nice and clean lots of parking wheelchair parking and handicap accessibility available. People are very friendly and helpful. Easy to see from the road. Quick easy access to the highway plenty of shopping in the local area including big box stores Banks gas stations restaurants fast food
Ugh spent forever here today over 90mins waiting to get inside to wait about another 30mins or so but they was doing everything that was ordered to be done right now maybe a pain in the butt yes but just knowing how hard they worked at keeping everyone a distance from each other and keep the amount down of the inside so there was no over crowding of the place it was very satisfying I was scared to go here have been putting it off because of the fear of it I mean come on its the BMV when have you ever went an it wasnt packed but that was not the case here thanks from all of us out here who do care we appreciate all your hard work to do right
The most discombobulated place I had been serviced since a child. No one knew what the other was to do they were scattered about calling numbers and then sending them back it was a nightmare. And the worst thing of all the lady that was calling the numbers was one of the rudest of all persons ahead encountered in a very long time
I cant even recall my last visit here at this point. Ive been here a number of times. Its usually when Im out of my way, with a client, or drawn into this part of town by some obligation. I really dont like this part of town, and after looking at the pix & reading the reviews, I can remember why.A lot of the other reviews hit the nail on the head. The area feels skeezy and sketchy. More than one comment here has mentioned theft, large parking space with no one around or too many people crammed in at once... Stores going out of business, bad business in the area...The place has a bad vibe. I never stay long ESPECIALLY when alone. As a female, I dont like to be alone here at all.I only come here basically if I dont have a choice.
This review is for the DMV only , not for Lighthouse Commons as a whole . This place is constantly crowded. My wait time was over one and a half hours. It may be due to the new license but if thats the case they should hire more people! The employees are friendly or maybe it just seems that way because youre so relieved by the time you get to actually talk to one of them!
Had to stop at Walmart. ππΌ it was convenient but as always there was an interesting mix of people and things to witness. The store is in good shape but its hard to check out in any decent time or find anyone to help you. The parking lot is a total pain with its layout.
Traffic through there sux! But you cant rly blame any one person or thing for that now can ya? But I love all the different places they have in through there now!!! I love swinging through and picking up a Starbucks coffee when I am stopping at Walmart or home depot (I have it limited that I only buy mu Starbucks if stopping at one of those two places, or if Im rly super tired! Otherwise I would be there every single day several times a day and broke broke broke cuz while to me they are worth it, they are still pretty pricey. And obviously if Im shopping at Walmart Im not exactly rich here, ya know! Lol!). The younger kids ABSOLUTELY LOVE all the ducks (usually most are geese but the lil ones cant tell the difference. Lol...) and love stopping to feed em bread before we go into the store! And its a nice bribe to get them to behave in the store. We feed the ducks first, then shop. If they act up/misbehave while in the store we do no feed the ducks the next time! Hey it works ya know... I love the different restaurants that are over there.. the kids, and husband both love the game stop over there. I love that if one of the kids or I or my husband need to go into the urgent care over there that there are these different places right there for anyone of us who is NOT seeing a dr that day. That way no one is grumpy and bored!
This restaurant continues to go downhill. Used to truly enjoy coming here but now the waiters and waitresses never come to check on you the silverware was dirty and when I asked the manager for some steak sauce it was like I was bothering her but she was the only one I could get her attention no probably wont be back you lost a weekly visitor Applebees
Its basically EVERYTHING you need in one little spot. Grocery, DMV, urgent car, coffee shop, food, pet supplies, everything!!! Its your one stop shop!!!! And a little pond in the middle to watch the ducks. I also see people playing with toy boats in there.. so theres that too lol
Theres a lot of corporate retail stores with good deals and reasonable amounts of clearance on items. Theres a nice burger place that I would recommend which also has a location at North Olmsted Mall. Pet Supplies Plus has a large selection of products and services and a Skechers just opened recently. Theres a Mexican Restaurant and a Starbucks as well and then across the street is Walmart and Home Depot. Overall this location has everything you need at a reasonable distance between each other. Theres even a DMV satellite which is much less active than the one located in Elyria.
Walmart was people was very rude and disrespectful a door greeter was disrespectful with me I was checking out out self check out by customer service there was to lades watching me he comes over away from doors and trys to accuse me of stealing his name is Richard he has black glasses and white and tall he is a door greeter who else has had problems
While you can find most shops you might need here, it is quite overcrowded. Many people means many cars, and a lot dont understand how to drive due to the odd layout and poor markings on the roads. And, it is Lorain so theres that. Even though we live 5 mins away, wed rather go to the elyria chestnut commons for the same shops and services.

2022-06-27Nice shops here, but if youre looking for the Lighthouse or even a light colored house(as the name implies)then youll be out of luck.
