Went there for the biometrics for AOS and EAD. It's located near a college and is downtown, so parking can be limited.
Aside from that, arrived 30 minutes early to our appointment, and we were done in 15-20 minutes, so we ended up leaving the building 10 minutes before our scheduled time. So apparently being early isn't an issue, at least for biometrics.
Security was nice, fairly straight forward. Take off belts, empty pockets, put everything in a bucket to go through the X-ray machine, etc. The appointment letter says "cell phones are prohibited" so we left ours in the car (make sure you lock the car and keep them out of plain sight if you do), but as of today (09/30/2015), they didn't seem to mind if you brought your cell phone with you, you need need to turn it off and keep it off.
All else being said, don't show up late and expect sympathy for whatever reason. This office was 2.5 hours from where we live, so we stayed overnight in the area at a hotel (Park East Hotel is pretty reasonably priced and clean for a place to stay, and it's within a mile of the USCIS office).
As for the workers, they were what you would expect. Firm, but fair. They were nice, but you can tell they've had to put up with a lot of different excuses and experiences for people not complying with whatever they need to do. Just make sure you are on time (or early, it worked for us!), have the required documentation, and everything should be quick and painless.
