Pretty sad when a Post Office can lower the bar for Post Offices. I received an email saying my package was available for pickup. 3 visits later I still don’t have my package. They did educate me that the Post Office receives a lot of packages. I didn’t know that. The guy at the window also informed me he didn’t send the email, the computer did. That shocked me too. They also tried to give me all the packages sent to my hotel! The guy at the desk didn’t seem too concerned.

The staff refuses to answer the phone. They won’t answer the phone anytime of the day or any day that you call.
