1-star Google reviewCoach K.5 years ago
The storage unit was not sealed off from the elements. My belongings were covered in dirt and dust. When I opened my unit it was basically protected from rain, baby spiders were running around and webs hanging of the door. I had told the people it was not weather proofed and they offered me a blanket for in front of the door or a new unit. I had no time to move so I took out my most non dust resistant items and chances the rest. I sent an email about being disappointed and received no response.

The staff here are helpful and informative, this is the only reason for 1 star. The company on the other hand is possibly the biggest grift this side of the rocks, a 4 week free hook brought me in, negotiated a good rate that "the system" didn't want to take at first and adjustments were made to make it work. Didn't matter, within 3 months the rate had jumped from my negotiated rate and I was spending almost 50% more every month, including "changing operstional costs" 🙄 and I was sent an email about it, with an…

Called in to store a camper van and was told to bring Canadian ID. I am not a Canadian citizen so I asked if it was okay to store my van under my Canadian boyfriends name and him coming with me to drop it off. After double checking with a superior I was confirmed this procedure. We showed up 3pm and the office was closed (even though hours are until 5 pm). We called and were told the attendand should be back within 20 minutes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars Plus! I had an appointment and was greeted by Evelyn as soon as I walked in. She welcomed me by my first name, which immediately made me feel comfortable and valued. The entire process was simple, efficient, and completely stress-free. Evelyn was professional, friendly, and made everything easy to understand. I highly recommend this location to anyone looking for excellent customer service. In my opinion, Evelyn deserves five stars plus for the outstanding experience she provided.

Amazing customer service right from the phone call to in person. Incredibly helpful and accommodating. Very clean and well maintained.
