Customer Supplies were empty. Very long line with only one employee serving customers.

What a disgusting place. Made an appointment for passport only to have it canceled without intimation. A rude representative shrugged his shoulders and said no. Err that’s why there is an appointment!

The staff is nice, but they are frequently short staffed. For example there's 15 people in line right now, however they only have one employee assisting the public. In addition, you can't skip the line to knock on the door to pick up your mail bc the sign says they are short staff and need to stand in line. This is quite unfortunate 😕

Ignorant clerk who did not care about my request. I specifically asked to have the package sent to another USPS office using the Hold for Pickup service, but the clerk ignored the request and processed it as a normal delivery. As a result, the mail is now being returned to the sender. Very disappointing experience and poor customer service. I would give zero stars if that were an option.
