- MPMatthew PayneAug 28, 20191.0Absolutely worthless to offer as a place I am a vet trying to mail something and the door is lock 45 min after it was supposed to be open. Then I was told when I knock that it is not a real post office and I cant use it didnt even ask if I was a vet or any just said I cant use it and closed the door on me. I will never got there again and recommend to all to never go there
- JCJim CryeJun 26, 20185.0This is a Great Idea for people living here or working here.
- CEChris EicherFeb 19, 20182.0Good luck finding it
- SMScott MatchetteDec 15, 20151.0While Joe is technically correct that this place exists, it's the absolute worst USPS ever. Their "holiday hours" remind me of Caddie Day in Caddyshack (Noon-2:30). But that's the least of the issue. The big challenge? Try finding this place. It's totally unmarked and buried in the bowels of the VA hospital. No parking available anywhere. I think I passed the Shroud of Turin and Bigfoot before finally finding this place. Also it's a shoebox and the clerk was a jag off. Never, ever, EVER again.
- ZLZouyan LuNov 19, 20154.0Limited hours, but this is a small USPS office located inside the VA hospital, mostly to service the vets who live or are staying on campus. Convenient if you happen to work there. Limited service given its small space, but they have some packaging materials and stamps.
