    Updated review: Been coming for a while to mail stuff, paying for signature mailing (which is what I'm doing now), and shipping e-commerce orders(eBay,Shopify, etc), and paying for money orders. Word of advice..... avoid this place after 3:30pm because the lines get really line with only 1-2 customer service attendants.

    Looked up post office with parking lot in this neighborhood and guess I totally lucked out when I came in mid afternoon on a hump day! Only 3 people in line and moved pretty fast with 2 open counters. Then a 3rd counter opened. It took me just ~15 mins in and out, including time to fill out an express form and all. Pro tip: 3:15pm is cutoff time for 1-day express mail.

    (Dropped Off & Mailed 05/25/22 WE @ 12:30pm): If anything, this particular location is called the "Nat King Cole Station" which is very cool https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=9Ku6zK6Sia44uGS-sSWRRA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! I found myself at the Koreatown location of the United States Postal Service "Nat King Cole Station" primarily to drop-off a ton of mail left by a former tenant who simply abandoned a nearby apartment he was renting from my family, and decided to mail some things, too. Because I had to drop-off the mail at the station that specifically delivered it, this was the only reason for me to ever visit this location especially since I had the two I frequented. How did this post office compare to the others I visited? PURCHASE First-Class Certified Mail ($4.33 x 4): I was canceling some service contracts and needed to formally send a mailed 30-day written notice instead of a simple email or phone call to their respective branch office. So, I decided to send them certified ($3.75 fee per letter) for the trackability and delivery confirmation. This was always a wise service to use whenever you mailed something of importance. SERVICE I arrived during lunch time, so there was only one female clerk, but soon a male staff member stepped up to one of the many counter windows https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=jOPCRWaadkf4AjKATa4qvQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Ultimately, I still waited in line for over 20 minutes, and I ended-up at this tall gentleman's counter who seemed a bit tired, uninspired, and annoyed in his demeanor. I was just doing straightforward transactions, so I figured just get me in and get me out. C'est la vie - it was what it was. PARKING (FREE) They had a medium private lot that contained maybe upwards of 20 regular spots and 1 for the disabled https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=BzbdpaCPzasALHINsnV8Kg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. When I initially drove by, there was a long line that went out into the street. So, I drove around the block and parked on Manhattan Pl. which ran along the parking lot. Otherwise, there was plenty of free, metered, and timed parking either along the main drag of Western Ave. and all surrounding streets. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Dreary... that was my first thought when I entered. This was a larger post office compared to the two I normally did business at. Outside, they had a couple drive-up mailboxes both at front and in the parking lot. Inside, the outer lobby area housed two standard-size mail slots, one for huge packages, a machine to make any quick postage purchases, a ton of P.O. Boxes, and one long workstation table. The inner lobby area had a short work table, various supplies and items for sale, and a switchback line that eventually led you to the customer service counter which had a ton of counter windows https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=CKu_RBDa7J9n3mgDdgL7sg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Decent natural lighting came in through the large back and front glass windows and doors while soul-sucking fluorescent electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. I didn't notice any TVs while low music played in the background. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL The Koreatown Nat King Cole Station location of the United States Postal Service fitted my current needs fine. They offered all the necessary postal services. As for the parking situation, for the amount of parking spots, I felt this delay wasn't the norm (I hoped not anyway). Honestly, what else could be said!? The atmosphere and service had little to be desired, and unless I needed to handle a similar task, this location wasn't convenient enough for me. I found good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $17.00 BEFORE any discounts/tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 3.0 STARS

    Parking lot to small for such a large post office. Street parking available if you can find any. If you placed your mail on hold while you are on vacation, you need to go to the door with a doorbell before 5 PM or else you can't get your mail. I asked one of the guys at the counter, and he couldn't/wouldn't get it for me so I had to come back the following day. He and the other worker weren't busy, but I guess it's not their responsibility to help a customer out.

    One worker at 1pm on Tuesday afternoon Poooooooor lady. Where is our tax dollars.
