- LALUICHY ABREUSep 1, 20255.0They could be show sometimes. But for a local postal service I always take care of my business there. Never had a problem.
- JDJohn DoeAug 19, 20254.0I had a pretty good experience at this post office. The attendant was nice, and I was able to get in and get out fairly quickly, which doesn't always happen at the post office.
- PCplaini cloimenSep 18, 20212.0this place is probably closed on Saturdays because they don't have enough workers to work in the office and they have to take Sunday off and is no big deal for me if this placed closed on Sundays but if the other days this place is closed it can be frustrating, on Saturdays they can close a little earlier than the the other days.
- RJRoy A Lang JrAug 1, 20174.0Very little if any wait time. I need not be amazed by decor. Fast and friendly unlike the dumpster fire on 14th.
