- BBBillOct 21, 20252.0Only open 5 hours a day in downtown Albuquerque is crazy. The drop box is inexplicably located on the other side of the building. Just makes no sense.
- JOJuliana O. Onaiyekan (OluSunJu)Jun 25, 20255.0Got to use here to post as the one on 5th street had a security checkpoint and I didn’t have my ID on me cos I’d just walked less than 10 minutes from where I stayed. But access was easy, the lobby was clean, no queues and staff were helpful and polite. And the location is beautiful and has a lot of beautiful art and hotels close by. Nice spot.

- PWPiper WysockiMay 8, 20235.0I had a wonderful experience at this post office today. My ballot for a local election arrived on the day of the election and the woman running the front desk postmarked it right in front of me so I could know it would count. Thanks for the awesome service!
