Great programming and café but the exhibition spaces are shockingly unclean and tired
Seven Stories - The National Centre for Children's Books的点评
点评：I’ve visited Seven Stories many times over the years and have always appreciated the storytime sessions, special events and lovely café. However, I’m increasingly appalled at the state of the building itself especially the exhibition spaces, which are now in desperate need of attention.
On my latest visit, we arrived at 10am as the centre opened and the space already looked grubby and ransacked. Nothing appeared to have been tidied or cleaned from the day before fancy dress items were all over the place, many of them looking so filthy I discouraged my child from touching them. Soft furnishings (like ‘Mog’s bed’ and the chairs) felt dirty to the touch, and stained carpets, scuffed walls, dusty corners and broken signage added to the general sense of neglect.
Even small things like blunt pencils on the drawing tables and out-of-date posters in the loos suggest a lack of basic upkeep. The toilets themselves were grubby and the taps wobbly.
It’s honestly upsetting to see a venue designed to inspire children in such a state. I know Seven Stories is a charity, but cleanliness and pride in presentation shouldn’t be optional. Right now, it feels like no one is keeping on top of it.
It’s a shame, because the team clearly put care into the programming but the physical space is letting everything else down.

翻译：这些年来，我多次造访七层楼，一直都很喜欢那里的故事会、特别活动和温馨的咖啡馆。然而，我对建筑本身的状况越来越感到震惊，尤其是展览空间，现在急需修缮。
我最近一次去的时候，上午10点中心刚开门，我们到的时候，整个空间就已经脏乱不堪，一片狼藉。从前一天到现在，各种奇装异服的物品似乎都没有被清理过，到处都是，很多都脏得让我的孩子不敢碰。软装家具（比如“猫咪的床”和椅子）摸起来很脏，地毯脏兮兮的，墙壁磨损严重，角落积满灰尘，标识牌破损，更增添了整体的疏于管理感。
即使是一些小细节，比如绘图桌上用钝的铅笔和厕所里过期的海报，也都表明这里缺乏基本的维护。厕所本身也很脏，水龙头也摇摇晃晃。
看到一个旨在激励孩子们的场地沦落到这种地步，真的令人心痛。我知道Seven Stories是个慈善机构，但干净整洁和自豪的展示方式不应该是可有可无的。现在感觉好像没人在维护。
这很遗憾，因为团队显然在节目安排上用心，但场地本身却让其他方面都大失所望。
