"It is not humidity controlled. We got our stuff out and found mold on shoes and chairs and bugs infesting boxes. We're still finding roaches, weavles, and silverfish because of boxes stored in there. When we first moved in our stuff into the unit we noticed the insulation on the ceiling was exposed, it was falling apart and appeared moldy. That should of been our warning. I will say that the customer service was good at least when signing up and leaving."
"Your representatives, Katiria Santiago and Cassie Marcellus, have been kind and helpful and provided great customer service. I appreciated their professionalism and friendly spirit. They were concerned about me getting the best situation for my needs. I greatly appreciated their care and concern. Thanks to your company for providing great customer service representatives."

"Have a wonderful pleasant experience at LifeStorage. Got all the answers needed to plan for moving. Thank you, ladies for your gracious kind attention and treatment."
"Your employee (Amanda) gave my codes to someone. I had to change them, and then she gave them to the person again. I'm trying to get out of an abusive relationship and you keep giving my abuser access to my things and I'm sure it's illegal to hand my codes out. I wouldn't recommend this place"

As a customer, Robert showed excellent customer service and I wish the company would appreciate that, give him a pay raise and promote him."

"Site is well tended and in good maintenance. I moved out of an Uncle Bob [Life Storage] Space in Maryland, and moved into one in Florida and very satisfied with both spaces. Thanks."
"Everything was ok just didn't expect to pay so much for such little space just feel that the space I rented could be a little cheaper and I also feel that we should have 24hr access to our storage "
"I love the Free Truck Rental, but the place I rented from did not have a truck, so I had to go pick it up at another location which was a pain. You should double-down on the free truck rental idea. That sets you apart from other storage rental places. Great benefit. Hugely helpful. Please keep the process as simple as possible."
"the associate was very helpful and informative as this was my first experience renting a storage unit.everything was taken care of in a professional way. good customer service."
"She greeted us as we came in the door I had reserved via internet and everything was all set. Took us to the unit and showed it to us. Was very friendly. Also we used a truck and had to pick up at a different Uncle Bob's and the woman there was just as friendly and helpful. All in all exceeded my expectations. "
"There are no trash cans on the property. It would be he helpful to have some available. Also the unit itself is very dusty and dirty and lots od spiders. "
"Again, Debra and Ryan were a joy to meet, work with and will visit in the near future to say "hi". They are definitely assets to Uncle Bob's operation."
"The facility is great and the staff is friendly and fantastic to deal with, but the units are undersized about two square feet depth-wise; it doesn't sound like much, but it certainly adds up. I am renting a 20x20 and a 20x10; this should equal 600 sq ft of usable space, but I've only got 540 sqft to work with and 60 sq ft really makes a difference."
"Will at the east hillsbrough location is a great asset. I was going through a difficult time when I moved items into storage. Will was was so helpful, and nice. Thank you again Will. "
"Your staff at the facility on East Hillsborough was always willing to assist with access as I have a construction business and the extended access was necessary to conduct business, they went out of their way whenever I asked for this. The facility was always being maintained in top condition which adds a sense of safety and pride-I always saw staff treating every customer as #1 as well.I rated you tops on Angie's list too."
