Although it gave me a vibe of a Harlem's emergency room on 135th and Lenox, NY, it was a lot more organized than anticipated. Other reviews pointed out the long lines and somewhat desperate behavior of the customers, but I didn't experience anything out of the norm. Other than sitting in the room for way-too-long waiting for your number to be called several times to pay and then to interview, I must say it was a seamless, uneventful transaction.
We were #10 in the line, grabbing #510. Within minutes we'd paid the fee and DHL. We sat like what seemed forever, waiting for the interview. Both ladies were friendly: the one that checked his originals and my file and then the consular that interviewed us. They looked a little stressed, but that's understandable. I gave it 4 stars only because I think the payment and interview could be consolidated into one transaction and I believe the lack of privacy adds to the stress. Talking about personal stuff thru a microphone is a little embarrassing. Other than that, it was all good!
