We (tourists from Switzerland) visited this post office on Saturday 04.10.2025. We wanted to visit friends on holiday, but unfortunately this didn’t work in terms of timing. So we wanted to send the friends the chocolate they had brought with us.
We received very good advice at the post office and were also helped with materials (adhesive tape, cardboard box, address sticker).
I would like to see a courteous service like this in every agency.
Kind regards from Switzerland.

Female blonde postal worker told me its going to be a while and go to another post office. Get it together. Tried to take a picture of my box I was shipping and she said no. It was not disruptive, it was my mail I was shipping out. She should be spoken to or go to another post office. Terrible service.
