"Miss Pattie is a delight!! I came in to help move something with my girlfriend. I'd never been to such a clean storage facility in my life and the office was immaculate. I came in to help my girlfriend and almost ended up falling for Pattie and buying a unit! A+ Facility and A+ personnel! If you're looking for storage in Stamford, Miss Pattie and Life Storage is where you should be headed!"
"Great storage facility and amazing staff, Pattie was so helpful and very nice with setting up our account and answering any questions we had! Thank you!"
"The facility is wonderful, everything is very clean and well kept, and the staff are the most friendly woman I have ever met and very professional, I am very happy we decided to use Life Storage. Thank you so much"
"Patty was so professional and helpful with very personal service. We will definitely use Life Storage again when we need to store our daughters’ college dorm room items."
"Terrific service. Have used this storage location for over a decade now and always excellent. Clean, easy in and out, and easy to navigate. I just hope Pattie never leaves"
"Ms. Pattie at the Hope Street site is great and so customer driven. She was accommodating and truly patient when working with me to find the right size storage unit. I appreciate her excellence in customer service. She definitely deserves to be recognized for her exceptional service by the corporate office."
"Life Storage made finding and securing a unit simple and efficient. I called prior to make an appointment and schedule a visit. Ms. Pattie was awaiting our arrival with a huge smile on her face. She showed us around her facility and ensured we liked the unit. The paperwork was easy and my husband and I were very happy with Ms. Pattie and the facility."
"Pattie provides great customer service! She is intelligent and she goes the extra mile to make sure your needs are met. I have been a customer for over 5 years and I have NEVER had an issue with Life Storage."
"Best Customer Service Ever!!! In my experience Patty was very professional and polite. Her attentiveness to customers is THE BEST! I would give her 10 STARS if I could."
"Wish I could give ZERO stars. MICE MICE MICE. droppings were all over my stuff. Patty did nothing about it. Patty is a nosy manager. Always in your business. Preying on people’s things and whoever is moving out or losing their unit to lure in and take your things. I’ve seen her and her little crew in the act-late night. Watch your things and get a good lock. She likes to through the lock hole and look into your unit to see what you have. Likes to threaten you as well. Took my stuff elsewhere!"
"Pattie is simply the BEST. She took an hour helping me get back into my unit, cutting my lock, when I lost my keys. Super professional and a lovely person to boot. EXCELLENT service."
"Great Facility with hands on staff there for everything you need! Was super easy setup to get the unit and very quick checkout when done. Would absolutely recommend to anyone in need in Stamford"
"Coming to life storage has been an absolute easy and comfortable ride , Pattie is the most helpful and respectful person I have ever met at a storage facility. I hope to always see her there ! :)"
"I highly recommend this location of Life Storage for your storage needs! We had a great experience storing contents from our house for 2 months while house was on market, from reserving the space online to seamless moving in and out. The place is clean, bright, and parking for moving contents is covered so you do not have to worry about moving items on bad weather days. Pattie in the office is super nice and extremely helpful and made the whole moving/storage experience wonderful. Price is also very reasonable compared to other storage spaces in the area."
"Fantastic facility! Staff was incredibly helpful from guiding in our truck to park, to helping form a plan on to best move in all of our furniture and boxes, and providing extra hand carts."
"Great customer service, Pattie is very nice, respectful, and helpful! She showed me the spaces I asked to look at, answered all my questions, and helped me get setup with a unit right away. Plus - she is very personable and great to speak with."
"A great facility for storing things! A very clean and spacious storage room. Patti was super helpful before, during, and after I moved my stuff in. I recommend them to anyone looking for a place to store things."
"Patty is always amazing and friendly! Clean facilities and well maintained. Have been a customer for several years, dating back to when it was Bob’s Storage. Patty and this location has been a constant rock through all my moves throughout my life 😍"
"Amazing customer service today - so kind and helpful closing my mother’s storage unit. 100% recommend to anyone looking for a place for storing items or a facility that cares about its’ customers."
"I’ve had a storage unit here for years. The facility is clean and bright, and my unit is a great size for a pretty good price. There’s always carts handy, and the office’s hours are pretty good, if you need to interact with anyone (the staff is helpful). The cars from the Splash upstairs can sometimes make entering and exiting annoying, but otherwise, this place is great."
"I stoped by to getting pricing and look at the facility. I was greeted by the manager Pattie, who was more than happy to help and show me around. She talked about the benefits here as opposed to similar storage. The complex was very clean and organized. The staff was helpful and very friendly. Would recommend this storage facility over others."
"The associate, Pattie, was a pleasure.. I had other reservations, however, her customer service made me use this location. She called as soon as she opened and gave detailed information on how to get here and what I'd need to complete my reservations. Nothing beats customer service!"
"If you’re thinking about leaving your stuff here just sell it on Craigslist because you obviously don’t care that much about it.
I rented a unit online and during the process of the move the storage was a mess!!!
The manager Pattie was surprisingly shocked, pretty incredible that a place like this can even survive."
"This is a great place. Patty was very helpful when it came to getting us set up and made our storage needs go smoothly! Will always choose Life Storage for our storage needs"
"the woman who works there ( I am embarrassed I forgot her name) is worth her weight in gold. You are lucky to have her as an employee. I hope you give her a pay raise. She was so pleasant and helpful. Always went out of her way to explain things and help. It was because of her that I rented another unit instead of using one that was closer to my house."
"Patty is the property’s biggest asset. She is professional, extremely customer service oriented and the reason why I’ve been storing at this location for over 15 years."
"Pattie is patient & she dedicated a large amount of time for me. Answered all my questions. Great prices. Love the covered parking for rainy moving days! Very happy with LifeStorage so far."
"Pattie is literally a saint (this is her location). Helped me get into my unit after I lost the key and went above and beyond to make sure I didn’t have to waste the uhaul I had already rented. Definitely store your stuff here!!!"
"Pattie is an extraordinary manager and extremely helpful!! She stayed past hours to diligently assist in accessing my unit. Absolute five star service!"
"When you visit life storage the lovely Miss Pattie will greet you. She can answer all of your questions about insurance, autopay, etc and give you a tour of the units. Pattie was extremely helpful and friendly and made the experience great."
"I had a wonderful experience with Pattie at life storage at the Hope street location. Such a pleasure working with her. I wish more people were as friendly as her."
"Life storage is Convenient, Clean and Miss Patty is an absolute pleasure to work with, she is Professional, Friendly, Accommodating and a major reason why we have been a long time customer!"
"We have rented at this facility with Pattie for over 7 years. Been extremely happy with the facility and the outstanding service provided by Pattie and her assistants. Will continue to use it for a few more years.
BTW we are also renting one in Waterbury - great experience with that as well."
"Utilized Life Storage for extra space during a large renovation project. Overall, we were extremely happy with the decision. Life Storage's entrance and office is located in the back behind Splash and access could not be any easier. An extra perk is because of the building design, parking and access are covered...with the amount of rain we experienced during the time we had our storage unit that turned out to be a great. Inside the facility is spotless, easy to get around, and staff is pleasant and helpful. Two large elevators and four carts make it easy to move things in and out, it is rarely busy and we never had a problem.
I felt the price was fair for what we got, after having the unit about 8 months we did get notice of an upcoming price increase, however we were "moving out" just in time to avoid that. If your in the market, I certainly recommend heading here."
"I've been a Westy/Bobs/Lifestorage customer for more then 10 years. Needing to relocate from Danbury to Stamford I decided on the Hope St Location. Pattie helped me determine what what the best unit for me, showed me the facility, I felt very comfortable with making this big decision, also Diego helped me make changes to my a/c he was very helpful and got everything squared away. Thank you Pattie and Diego very much."
"Very friendly, personable, and professional. We came in thinking we wanted a 5 x 10, but after talking to the manager, she was helpful in showing us why a 5 x 12 may be better for our needs. Both the manager and her assistant were kind and patient during the process. My parents have been coming here for over 10 years and we're happy to join them!"
"I just want you to know what a fabulous job Patty does at your Hope Street location ! I have dealt with her for many years and am always impressed by her . I would probably go somewhere else if she left ! You are lucky to have such a wonderful employee."
"I cannot remember the lady's name but her manager was Tiffany - she was extremely helpful and kind. She was professional and courteous and knowledgeable. Please give her a raise!"
"Totally satisfied with the courteous, professional and knowledgeable two ladies that helped me and made me feel very comfortable with the transaction! I would highly recommend using this facility and its wonderful staff!!! "
"Patty at the Hope Street branch in Stamford was a pleasure to deal with all these years. She was super helpful and friendly. You need more employees like her. She made my experience great. "
"Patti was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I wanted to rent a second unit, and she went through my options and found the perfect unit for my needs. Very satisfied."
"I'm absolutely thrilled to have switched to LifeStorage from my previous storage provider {CubeSmart} locally here in Stamford. LS offers a far better storage option on many levels, and I look forward to being a customer from here on out. Patti and her staff are awesome!"
"I don't yet have an impression of your company however I've been storing at this location for 13 years, with various owners. Throughout this period the one constant has been Patti, your sales representative.
Patti runs the facility as though it were her own. She's not only professional but very customer service focused. I recently needed to move into a larger unit. Patti helped me find the right unit for my needs and even assisted me on the day of my move by pushing one of my trolleys so that I didn't need to make two trips.
There are several storage options in Stamford but I'll remain loyal to this one because of the outstanding service and support that Patti provides."
"Pattie is the greatest help in the world. I wish she worked everywhere. Without her I would be lost and have lost a lot of money and time not to mention effort. THANK YOU PATTIE!!!!"
"I'm always greeted promptly when I go to the office. Most of the time I'm there only to go to my unit, and often at times when the office is closed. "
"Patti and her colleague were terrific - good ambassadors for Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. BTW the employees at eh other Bob's where I picked up the truck were also very friendly and helpful - a good group.
Thanks."
"Did not expect such a high level of professionalism for some reason, our first experience with storage and I expected less I suppose. Pleasantly surprised, very well run!"
"It would be nice to see Bob's open to storage renters until 10pm.
That extra hour would help accommodate moving needs for clients not to run into getting stuck after the hour of 9pm.
Overall I am very happy and would highly recommend Bob's."
"I love the fact that the storage facility is clean and very convenient, But the storage price is to high and I will either be finding another storage facility or down sizing. I haven't made that decision yet. the 8 dollar sales tax is ridiculous."
"I was impressed with the cleanliness and climate control of the storage unit I used. I would certainly use your services again and would recommend to my friends. "
