"The staff here is amazing! Very helpful and extremely friendly, i would recommend those that need their valuables stored to come to life storage and meet Margaret and Jim. They are the best, thanks guys!"
"Margaret was extremely helpful and the rental process was very smooth. This has been a stressful time trying to recover from a hurricane so it was great to have such a positive experience here at Life storage."
"Margaret Alster gave us AWESONE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Showed us the storage room, which was kept clean, provided the rules, access hours. A dynamic person to your organization."
"I have been a customer with them for at least 4 years now & have never had an issue.. Then within a matter of months my bill went from $121.00 to &187.00.. That’s a big increase!! Then to make matters worse.. We were all effected in someway with hurricane Ian & you would think that someone would work with the victims.. But nope.. I am completely disappointed once again with this company!!"
"The Life Storage at 19400 S. Tamiami Trail was the best! I told the store manager she was my Angel today! They had no internet service due to Hurricane Ian but still got me set up and into my reserved unit today. She was a life saver! Corp. needs to stop reserving unless they are sure the location is up and running!"
"Great storage place! Easy to get around, rarely crowded, carts to use 👍 I love that when you sign up, there is a lock already waiting for you in your unit- makes life so much easier. I did the whole process online and never once had to go into the office area, zero issues. Able to setup auto payments so I never have to worry. 10/10 stress-free experience!"
"The manager, Margaret, was so helpful and made accommodations for me to switch units on the last day of my lease. I very much appreciate her help and consideration! I would recommend Life Storage to anyone!"
"When I knew I needed a storage unit, this was the first company I came back to! This particular facility is just as sparkling clean as expected, and beautifully maintained. I have met two of the amazing people who run the place, and they are both exceptionally helpful, friendly, and really take an interest in the comfort and satisfaction of their clients. I am exceedingly happy that I am able to rent a storage space with them!"
"Margaret and Jim are wonderful. Very good management. The storage units are kept clean and bug free. I have recommended this place to several people."
"First time here and the service was amazing! Margret helped us find a nice storage unit with an amazing price. Margret was very kind and helpful with me and my mother."
"Nicest place by far I have rented a storage unit at. The whole place is always very clean and kept up. The staff are extremely helpful and always out and around working on stuff and keeping an eye on things. Margaret is awesome and always happy to help with anything. I have already recommended this place to several friends"
"When you think about a storage unit, normally the staff don't come to mind. Just whatever it is you are loading or unloading from your unit, if the ac is working, is the building clean. Not here. (#483) has Margaret. Margaret makes you feel welcome and is so kind. Iam pretty certain she can remember the name of everyone in my family. I still think of the other things as well."
"Margaret was so amazing! She was honest, gave me the best deal, and was super friendly. I am a college student and I have never had a storage unit before so obviously I had so many questions. She was so patient and answered everything- super knowledgeable! Had one little hiccup with the unit and she fixed it immediately. Incredible customer service, some of the best I've ever had. Thank you!"
"They are so, nice the People who work there. Never any problems with them. Made everything very easy. Very quiet place very clean and very affordable."
"Margaret and Jim were extremely helpful. Renting the unit and checking in was simple. Our 10 X 10 unit is wonderful. Clean and easy to get to. I love that the facility is gated and that they have carts to get stuff to your unit and a nice elevator as we are on the 2nd floor. I'd give more stars if I could."
"Very friendly staff very helpful . Management very accommodating !! Highly recommended !!! From a business manager to another they are doing it right here !!!"
"Margaret is so kind and thoughtful. She and Cassandra both, as a walk in customer she didn't have what we needed but directed us to Bonita Springs facility and couldn't have mad a better decision. The facility is clean and she is just amazing!"
"Lifestorage saved my life. During pandemic life and moving into my new place life storage as much needed. I’m so happy to have one close to me and couldn't choose a better place to store my things. Having the access to my unit until 11pm was really helpful. Thank you!!"
"I have used many different storage facilities through the years and Life Storage is by far the best. Margaret is super helpful and always a pleasure to deal with. Prices are great and service is exceptional. I won’t go anywhere else."
"Starting with Margaret on the phone and Jim at the Fort Myers location they are extremely professional. They don't push or pressure you, they explain and show you everything. Very clean storage spaces. I checked out a few storage places in our area, and they were far and away the best in price and overall transparency!"
"Wonderful, organized, clean, and friendly place! I worked with Margaret the Lead Manager and she is so friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend storing things here!"

"Cassandra was so helpful in explaining my mother's options for renting a space with covid-19 being such a fear for her. Was able to get a space online at the facility without mom having to be fearful of any exposure. The store is so clean and when I went to get boxes both cassandra and Margaret were wearing masks, and they are practicing social distancing. The space is exactly what we needed at a wonderful price.

"Margaret went out of her way to help me get a storage unit for my Father who had to move to assisted living. She was so helpful to get him a space close to road since he can't walk far and explained everything so clearly. There were no smoke screens and phony discounts to get you in. Just a straight fair price. Facility is very clean and organized. She went out of her way to help us. I recommend them highly!"

Conveniently located every thing is in arms reach ( Walmart right down the street, and there's a auto parts nextdoor.
If I have one bad thing to say is " I wish I could afford another unit there"."

"Outside parking storage area is junky. Occupants occupy more than their allotted space. Big chuck holes in gravel area. Front gates are left open to often, we have been to the property over 4 times in the past month and have not had to use our code to get in or out because of open gates. I do not feel that our parked vehicle is as safe as it was before, what has changed? "
"In this day and age I can't and don't understand not being able to communicate with you, there were no problems when it was San Carol's Storage ??????"
"Kathy and Lindsey are awesome. Very helpful and always wanting to satisfy my requests. I was upset when my rent increased when new owners took over. I understand that's business but I think I should have been grandfathered in. "
"We were use to getting a generic invoice as a reminder of monthly payment being due when it was San Carlos. Now that it is Uncle Bob's that as been discontinued. It was a great reminder in this hurry up world we live in. Would appreciate initiating the reminder again. Otherwise all has been fantastic. No complaints. "
"could not gain access to my trailer on a saturday because of a flea market that was blocking access. I hope this activity will not take place any longer."
