the big kind, two stories with some restaurants or dinners on the second floor. modern as well as It will mean that there is less visible concrete, a metal and glass staircase is much easier to break down then a concrete one. The perfect shelter would also have a "green" store with solar panels and water sanitizers. Of course there is no such thing as a perfect shelter during an outbreak. Just better than the last.

some place with 2 floors which incorporates a garden center of some kind like B&Q. Move what you need on to the second floor and or roof (for gardening purposes) then destroy the stair case and access routes to ground floor, thus preventing zeds making their way up to you.. As long as you can grow you're own food and have access to basic supplies from stores on the second floor you could wait it out there for quite a long time assuming you didn't rescue a shit load of people on your way there... Anymore than 10 in your group and you're asking for trouble anyway...

7 11. it's small, so, easy to make sure that you and you're friends are alone. also makes it easy to barricade. Also, you've got food and drink to last you for a while. Also, a walmart, or target is good. Although a bigger place, it's got basic supplies, food, water, clothing, sanitation supplies, and a sports section, camping gear, melee weapons out the wazoo... Those would be ideal places. Depending on the location, walmart may have a gun section.... pray for those kinds of walmarts in your area.

Happen to have a walmart with gun and academy across the street, probably be cool to actually be able to get into a Cabellas Outdoor sports store, gun heaven....well unless survivors try to loot it

definitely not a big one with shelves and aisles everywhere, too many places for zombies to hide. I would probably say a restaurant because there's many less places for zombies to hide as well as weapons varying on what the place used to make. At a Mcdonalds or other fast food joint you could use the deep fryer's grease and other objects, but in a gourmet restaurant there would be knives or trays to sharpen and throw.

Well i would say the local mall would be AMAZING, but seeing how everyone would go there, I would rather stake out at Costco for a while (couple of months or so.) I woudl then pack up a truck (or 3) and head to the mall (Its literally less then a mile away form costco.) And i would bring everything from costco to the mall and lock the mall completly up. (kill all zombies inside it aswell as any Douche that doesnt let me in.) I know my mall inside and out and all the "secret" entrences and exits so i could find anything that is hiding. I would probly also stop by on target (shooting range) and get some guns/ammo (its right off of the main road to the mall.) so im set for quite some time. But the DREAM place to be would probly be my school, Its got a nice "scout tower" right in the middle (like 5 storys tall) but its a far drive and theres not too much good protection (gates and other things to keep people/zombies out.

My local High School actually would be good. You could hold the place, if you have the food and ammo of course, forever.

some schools have been turned into a bomb shelter unintentionally over time.
the Abe Friedman Occupational Center is one of them. it used to be beautiful old building, now its a butt ugly windowless 10 story concrete structure built like a aboveground air raid shelter.
http://blogdowntown.com/2008/05/3337-vocational-center-another-vict...
1646 South Olive Street, Los Angeles, California
before:
After:
it has 10 floors up, a basement, a subbasement, and a sub-sub basement (3 floors below ground)
I sneaked into the sub-sub basement, its not lit and really creepy. appears to have a bomb shelter. although the building above would of sufficed just fine.

It was built in the 20's and practically every doorway is a firing position and every staircase has a overview that make perfect places to fire from.

IKEA- like having a 112 room 350,000 sq foot house. it has everything and sometimes multiple copies of everything. there are few ground floor entry points, its made of premanufactured concrete slab constructions, huge flat roof suitable for some gardening, and a massive parking lot around it that gives you a nice 200+ yard clearing to make into some kind of no-man's-land. skylights for venting and allowing light into the otherwise windowless structure. actually mine has windows, but not enough of them.
what it lacks is food, water & power. it has everything else.
Super Walmart, like the one in Santa Clarita, California. if you like walmart, then one is like going to walmart heaven. its huge, inside its neat, brightly lit, and very welcoming. and sam's club is right next to it. there's many skylights to bring natural light in, few entryways, has everything and then some, even though in CA it doesn't sell guns it has lots and lots of ammo. again concrete structure, standalone construction ( besides the sams' club), surrounded by a huge parking lot.
it being 100+ miles from my house, I've only been there 3 times, but each time it was a great experience. its not like the other walmarts which i often find to be dingy, depressing, poorly lit, disorganized, full of lazy, incompetent employees that wish not to be there, and parking lot is always full of idiot drivers that make you scared to park there because you don't want your car dinged up or backed into. and don't mean to be racist, some of the my local walmarts its like going to a Mexican one, everything is in Spanish. I hate that, this is the USA, where we speak, read & write english, I had to learn it, so should everyone else. the Spanish irritates me, its like as if California is part of Mexico.
a real gun store, like ammo bros, ade's gun shop, or B&B guns. if you didn't get filled with lead upon entry. they have a security cage that if you enter, requires someone up near hte cashier to press a key so you can enter the store. the windows are barred, the place is like a fortress. ammo bros has an in-house reloading shop. ade's, a gunsmith, and B&B guns just has everything gun-related.

I think the idea they had in Resident Evil Afterlife with the prison as a holdout was a good one. The Milton Penitentiary is about 30 minutes from my place and they have riot gear, 30ft high walls, generators (provided fuel can be salvaged). Unfortunately because it's a Canadian prison it has no firearms, but there is a police division 1km away from it for the purpose of providing support from ERT. That means the weapons wouldn't be civilian grade. Plus the watch towers would be good, and though all the doors and such are run off of a system the old key and lock still works for if there was a power disruption.
To me it seems like a damn good place to hold up. With a really good team you could probably turn it into one hell of an operations centre.
