"First experience with Life Storage and Coretta made it a seamless experience! Thank You!!! Moving is never easy but she made it just a little more pleasant when we met her. She helped us with selecting the best sized unit to rent, walked us through our contract and helped with directing the movers. Couldn’t have asked for a better, friendlier face on what seemed like the longest day!"
"I've never been to a storage facility before and on Friday the 30th of September the manager Kahretta (hope I spelt it right) was very helpful and patient with info on a 10 by 10 unit.I would definitely recommend Life storage"
"Good evening,
I had the opportunity to utilize the services of Life Storage- Miami and was thoroughly impressed. The attentiveness that was provided along with the professionalism for the person that assisted me, Val, was greatly appreciated. She took time to explain and answer several questions I had. This patience resulted in my direct recommendation of the company to several friends and purchases of units. I also appreciated the honesty about renovations. Overall satisfied with my experience."

"I was shown a 10×10 unit on the 2nd floor. Valencia I believe is her name. Very knowledgeable and was extremely helpful. Unit is very clean. Thank you for your help!!"
"Kharetta was awesome, very knowledgeable about the company and her customer service was beyond what I was expecting..She went above and beyond. We need more like her!"
"Kharetta Blake - the store manager in Coral Gables is AMAZING! She's professional, cooperative, and goes our of her way to help. Best storage location in town because of her."
"Came to LifeStorage to find a space super last minute for storing holiday gifts. Although Kharetta said the store was closed, she saw me approaching and opened up for me! She was so kind and helpful. The storage is perfect, location is fabulous and staff was amazing! If you need storage, look no further!"
"Moving is always a stressful experience. I am so grateful for Kharetta's kindness & helpfulness when I was unloading the belongings from my move into my storage unit. It's really warming to know that this kind of customer service (& friendliness) exists here! My entire experience was actually great from choosing a storage facility & booking to loading it."
"I originally posted this on google reviews, but this was a really great experience that I had to share it on Yelp as well! It was so easy to plan everything with Kharetta here, she guided me through the steps on reserving a space, sent me the application online, and even though it was time for her to leave once I got there, she literally took the time and helped me get everything fixed and adjusted immediately. She was so kind and made my experience here great. I know for a fact that I can suggest this storage area to anyone and everyone! They even have little trolley-like pieces you can use to bring your stuff up towards the other floors. They have bathrooms. It's very clean, like I see no cons for this area!"

"We were at Public storage ( next door) trying to purchase bubble wrap and they had no one in their storefront. I made my way next door to be greeted with a nice friendly front desk person who was very helpful. This experience gave me life for real."
"Several years back I needed a storage space but it had to be safe, secure, and air conditioned so my things would not get damaged. I also wanted to have comfortable, easy access. I searched high and low to the point where I was ready to give up.
Then one day I walked into Uncle Bob’s I met their staff, I toured the facilities. Finally I had found it.
Super nice people, friendly and helpful. Safe and secure location including the covered parking area where I would do my loading and unloading without having to worry about the weather or theft. They always had plenty of carts clean and ready for me to use, clean restrooms, and the place was always kept nice and cool with plenty of lighting. In all the years I used the space I never saw it any less than perfect.
I have now gotten a bigger home and the time came to bring my items home.
Oh and did I mention the people…… As Tony the Tiger would say “Their Great”
Thank you Yanely and Mike for everything!
Would I recommend this place? Well I took the time to write all this so, Yes I would!!"
"Had some trouble getting around but Kharetta at the front desk was so helpful! So friendly and polite! If you’re there and she’s working you’re in great hands!"
"I use Life Storage for business reasons. It is a great facility - clean and secure. Plus, Kharetta is a fantastic manager who always provides the best customer service!"
"SECURITY RISK- THEFT,VANDALISM !!! Beware....my unit was broken into last week ( along with @ 20 other units in the building). I was not notified until over 12 hours later.
AND apparently there is NOT security NOR an alarm system in the building to prevent break in, bulgary and vandalism. I was told the building does NOT have an alarm system which is why the robbers could be in the building throughout all 5 floors for hours and NOT be caught or the police notified. For some reason, the police are having to suponea the video from the storage building since it is NOT willingly being given to the police. ( which they found VERY odd) It would appear it was an "inside job" or they are covering something up?? DO NOT USE THIS STORAGE UNIT IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT ROBBERY, VANDALISM, THEFT"

"There aren’t enough words that have been invented in modern languages that can accurately describe the warm, welcoming and helpful ways this LifeStorage location and the immaculate Kharetta has handled me and my highly stressful situation. A calming energy that makes the entire process [and any errors, like in my case] an easy experience.
Kinda sad to go because I won’t be able to see her and her invitingly nurturing personality that can ease practically any maddening situation. Someone needs to get to cloning Kharetta, STAT. The world needs more souls like her’s.
P.S. I couldn’t figure out how to hack the website and give the ACCURATE rating of seven stars….so I will settle with 5."
"Came to life storage and Kharetta the store manager was super helpful! I asked questions about the unit I rented and how I can get the truck rental for free. YES for FREE. All we paid was for the truck insurance and we got 30 FREE miles. Everyone come see Kharetta she’s amazing and helpful !!"
"Sandwiched between two giant storage facilities, this place seems small. That's the good news. Good and alert front desk who can handle watching and helping."
"Went to tour the facility; staff was very friendly and helpful. Answered all questions about the unit space/different sizes; how to access the facility etc. Would recommend this storage to anyone looking to store items away. The facility has A/C and security measures in place to keep items in unit secured."
"Kharetta is friendly, and answered all my questions. Facility is secure, keypad entry to enter and leave parking, and for elevator. Parking high enough box vans. Bathroom is clean."
"Thank you so much guys. The manager was so willing to answer all of my questions about renting a space! I was looking around but I was most impressed with you guys and ended up renting there!"
"Excellent prices and great service provided by Kharetta the Manager on duty. She was very helpful and well informed. I am truly happy to have rented from this location."
"We just purchased a storage unit at the location 2450 SW 28th LN Miami FL. We were greeted by Kharetta who was happy to assist us with any questions we had and also helped us find the perfect unit for our needs. Due to the wonderful experience, we will defiantly be advising anyone we know (and highly advise anyone reading this) to go with Kharetta at Life Storage for all thier storage needs. She is honest and explains how the prices work so you are not surprised or upset in the future. Great Customer Service!"

"Place is run poorly. Staff is unfriendly and unhelpful. Prices are ridiculously high and they increase every 3 months and you have to take it or leave it. I closed mine out and got a better deal somewhere else."
"It was a breeze! I was worried it was going to be a painful long and frustrating process, it was not! I worked with Kharetta and she was fantastic! Super friendly, easy to chat with, helpful, and inviting! Thank you, Kharetta! I was able to move my things in immediately after signing up for a unit and the whole process was very simple, straightforward, and not at all a headache! I would absolutely suggest using this place for your storage needs!"

From the beginning stages of the quote process, to the viewing of the unit, the paperwork (all digital), supplies needed for long term storage (lock, antihimidity, etc), access to the building and ease for movers to unload/load their trucks... all of it was A+. The ladies we communicated with at the desk onsite were also very professional and helpful. Definitely recommend!!!"

"Your facility is in excellent shape but after interacting with the staff you come to realize that they are the true reason I would choose to use your services again and again in the future."
"Janelys and Michael at the 27th Ave store are super helpful and just genuinely kind people. The place is kept spotless. It's also well lighted, which I appreciate. The AC is kept at a comfortable setting. The one caveat is the new timer on the lights in the hallways, so that if I'm going thru a box in the unit the sensor doesn't pick up movement in the hall & the lights go off, so I have to stumble out to get the lights on again."
"The service level at this location was incredible -- I've never been treated so well at a storage facility before! This is the ONLY place where I'll store my things. Thank you!!"
"Yanely and her staff were super helpful and always pleasant to work with. We had to change from a smaller unit to a larger one in the middle of moving items in and everyone went out of their way to make the entire process very easy. "
