So this spot--Mail Room & More inside La Reina Plaza in Sherman Oaks--has been around forever…read more(about 30 years!). The building used to be an old neighborhood cinema, but now it's home to this mailbox center that's finally having its glow-up moment. And let me tell you: the new team is a massive upgrade. The two guys running it now? Friendly, accommodating, and actually happy to help. A total 180 from the previous workers, who... well, let's just say customer service was not their strong suit. I honestly avoided this place before, but now it feels completely different--in a good way. I drop off all my FedEx and UPS packages here, and I pick up my boxes from Amazon, UPS, and FedEx at this location too. Super convenient, no stress. I also got my passport photos taken here, and they did an excellent job with those as well. They offer PO boxes, mailboxes, notary services, passport photos, fingerprinting, and just an overall smooth experience. If you need mailing or document services in Sherman Oaks, this is officially a yes from me.

What can I say about American Passport Visa Services... The best!…read moreI was in a bind, my passport was expired, and I needed to fast-track it to have it renewed. I started looking for ways to do this online, and even called a couple of places, and I didn't feel any confidence with the companies I found. I was talking about my plight with my work associate, and he reminded me he had his passport fast-tracked and gave me the name and number of Alida from American Passport Visa Services, whom he used. I called Alida and we were on our way. She was very direct about what we needed to do (and avoiding wasting each other's time). We met up and we took care of business. I felt fully confident in Alida and her work. We talked about timing and to make sure there were no false expectations. I did pay for the expedited services, because of my time frame, and it was worth it! My Passport arrived a couple of weeks later. My anxiety was relieved. I highly recommend Alida and American Passport Visa Services!

To start, I will admit I had never utilized a Travel Agency before to book a vacation. However, for…read moremy family's and I Summer vacation trip to Japan it really felt like an arduous task when I tried to do research of where to stay, visit, etc. I did not know what to expect when originally coming across L & B Travel on the app Thumbtack. When I reached out I was assigned Sebastian. From the very beginning Sebastian was extremely friendly, patient, understanding and most importantly, very knowledgeable and transparent. I initially sent him over a bullet point list of what I was looking for and details of our trip. We then scheduled a short call to discuss my trip and confirm some trip details. Very quickly thereafter Sebastian provided the initial itinerary that was extremely spot on, which made me appreciate that he listened intently and captured every single detail of my trip request. I immediately felt more relaxed knowing that Sebastian really cared about my trip and wanted to get things right, right out of the gate. As part of the itinerary that Sebastian provided, it included a phenomenal package of hotel stays, flights and tours across 3 cities in Japan at cost-effective rates. Things I would 100% not have been able to find/secure on my own. Sebastian was able to get me everything we wanted in our trip and within our budget. I could not believe it! Fast-forward to once we were in Japan... We had a tour one day to Mount Fuji and the third party company that Sebastion had procured our tour from, had delayed our tour voucher and still had not provided it as of the morning of our tour. From Japan at 8am local time, as my family and I waited outside the tour bus, with 20 minutes left before the bus would leave for the tour, I called Sebastian for his help. In less than 5 minutes he called me back and retrieved the voucher from the third party and emailed it me, so we would not miss our tour. Sebastian sprung into action immediately and saved what could have been a very disappointing day, into a day my family and I will never forget in such a wonderful way! As we were getting close to ending what had been an incredible vacation to that juncture, I reached out to Sebastian as we were gearing to heading to our final city (Osaka) in Japan for our final 3 nights, asking if he could do anything about our hotel lodging as I felt our jr. suite would be too cramped for my family of 5. Again, Sebastian sprung into action immediately and was able to pull some strings and upgrade us to a larger suite that was perfect for us AT NO ADDITIONAL COST. All in all, reaching out to L & B Travel and being fortunate enough to work with Sebastian was the best thing that could have happened to my family and I with our vacation as everything turned out beautifully, as we really had the time of our lives. That being said, I recommend L&B Travel to anyone and everyone, and I recommend Sebastian to all who are looking to plan a trip. He really knows his stuff, but you get a guy who is honest, patient, understanding, hardworking and transparent, and who did all the heavy-lifting to get my trip planned successfully. I have found my travel agent and without a doubt will continue to use L&B and reach out to Sebastian for all of my future trips/family vacations. From my family and I, THANK YOU, Sebastian and L&B!!

The wait time wasn't that bad - in and out in a little less than 3 hours on a Friday, was there from around 10:30-1:20-ish. Pro tip: get there early, at least before noon, and block off some time.

They only had 3 employees working and there was a massive line of people waiting outside with false hope. Even the line for appointments was long! You have to WAIT OUTSIDE in the valley. That's just crazy to me. We waited here for three hours on a Tuesday at 2pm only to be turned away and told they wouldn't be able to accommodate us. Sure sure, the stressed out, underpaid federal employee warned us that he can't guarantee that everyone in line would be seen, but they really should have cut the line so that people didn't waste 3 hours in line for absolutely nothing. He was clearly overwhelmed and annoyed, maybe by other people who might've yelled at him in the past? No clue. No one was yelling at him when we were there - he was kinda rude and dismissive to the 50 of us who were waiting in line at his mercy. What a GD waste of time. We ended up going to the Glendale location for an appointment the next day and the experience was night and day. The review for that location is in my profile, but seriously go there instead!! Also, we came here in the fall for an appointment before and the woman taking our daughter's passport photo was very impatient and did not really care to give us retakes for our daughter's first passport photo. Sure, this isn't a premium service we're paying for, but have some compassion for our shy 3 year old. There's plenty of parking in the lot next to the building. They accept debit cards, cash, and checks for payment.
