1-star Google reviewTyson S.6 months ago
My furniture was being ruined by mice in the unit. I tried to use the insurance from the company and was denied with excuses and profanity. The property manager Mark who lives on the premises is a rude, disrespectful, unprofessional guy who will lie to the owner for his own good. The guy should be fired for the way he behaves when no one is looking. This place needs to shut down. I do not recommend.

Avoid this place! Update to a previous review. I signed up for a $20/month price. At the time, there was no disclaimer that this was an introductory deal that would expire in 3 months. After 3 months my price increased to $40 with no …

After only two months of renting they DOUBLED the price of my unit. There’s also a hidden insurance fee they do not blatantly tell you about. the annoyance of having to move my stuff AGAIN bc my rental price was double actually has me in another dimension. Thank GOD I didn’t have a bigger unit packed with stuff. When I called to cancel my unit after I moved out, the guy I talked to was super friendly tho and already process my move out bc he saw my unit cleaned out lol.

I strongly advise against doing business with this company. They are ridiculously expensive and blatantly engage in price gouging. For the smallest unit, the insurance costs more than the unit itself. If you’re late with a payment, beware: …

If I could leave 0 stars I would. This place is a Scam. When you tour the property they tell you how safe it is and all cameras work which is LIES! They raise prices without any heads up. The property manager lives on site and sneaks …
