- SMSal MartinezFeb 9, 20264.0Decided to leave a good review based on my experience because the other ones are god-awful. It was my first time sending out Certified Mail and even though the front desk lady promted me to use the self serve kiosk she did help me walk through it step by step to I get get a good understanding of how it worked. Once I was done she happily double checked my packages ensuring I was set up for success.
- AHAmber HignightJan 30, 20261.0Rudest person I've ever had to interact with.
- ALAdam LounsberyJan 21, 20265.0Love this place. The ladies keep it real and I’ve never had a problem in the 10+ years I’ve been sending packages.
- MDML DJan 2, 20261.0This post office at 1510 East 55th is so badly run. December 30th there were 20 people waiting at noon for the clerk to return and reopen the office. There was a note on the outside of the locked door that said "intermission." No return time listed and after almost 40 minutes a clerk did return. A man from the post office came during this time to pick up the mail and called downtown he said but then he left because he couldn't wait any longer. I had been to the same place the day before and found they were out of stamps and the machine was broken. Hyde Park needs a great post office. These women should be fired and replaced with people who do their job.
- JHJohn HeritageDec 31, 20254.0Staff was very pleasant to work with. They were out of stamps and other customers came unprepared and that slows things down. But slow customers is not their fault. They worked as fast as the customers would move.
