1-star Google reviewChristina2 years ago
If I could give 0 stars I would. The guy who claims to be a manager there is so unprofessional he drives a truck lowered he has no idea as how to run an establishment with customer service. they may be clean but he is super rude N no one seems to care. The prices are pretty high but why would you rent there if you dont get what your paying for they harass people. And frankly I moved my stuff out of there. They should really. Consider new employees before they loose more customers . Don't deal with this place.

I am sick and tired of the incessant harrassment by the thug the owner hired recently to mismanage this establishment. I am a long-time renter here and NEVER had any issue with the prior management and staff. As a business management consultant to fortune 100 companies and givernment organizations I state with authority that these people's intimidation tacticts are unacceptable. I have been accused of speeding while people fly by at 3 and 4 times the speed limit in the facility.

Unfortunately my experience there has been a very bad one. I brought it to their attention that there was an overwhelming rat urine problem so much in fact that my property was being permeated with the smell!? 6 months now it's been I've brought it to their attention and have received nothing but inferior responses.. I've been so upset over it in the destruction of my property that I'm having to take them to court. Thus my poor experience!? If there's any improvement I'll be sure to post it.

The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

I have been a customer of Frontier Self Storage for several years, and can attest that both the management and quality of service provided by Frontier Self Storage throughout the years are consistently outstanding. The manager, Julia, and staff members Juan and Bianca, are personable, professional, and very attentive to both the customers’ needs and continual facility upkeep.
