"Rusty was an incredible help. Haloed me with a lock problem and could not have been more friendly. A great asset to the company as assistant manager!"
"Never had such amazing service at a storage place!! Ms Wendy is amazing! Not only is she sweet as sugar, she keeps the place SPOTLESS!! I stored my things at this location for 5 years and when we moved out, there wasn’t even any dust on my stuff!! I think that’s pretty clean!! If you’re looking for a place to keep your stuff safe and sound, this is it!! Tell Ms Wendy that you read the reviews. And if you’re reading this one, you can see that I’m not the only one that feels this way. I’m smiling all the way to my new home in New Mexico. 💝💝"
"Very nice & clean! Also very helpful management. Dropped our keys down the elevator shaft & the assistant manager was very patient & helpful upon retrieval of them."
"Mrs. Wendy was extremely helpful and welcoming. She showed me the unit before I decided to rent and talked to me about spacing. Mrs.Wendy was very kind and pleasant to talk to. I very much recommend this location and I recommend Mrs. Wendy as a person to assist you even more!"
"This is my second maybe third time using life storage on Johnston Street. I return because as always the environment is clean, provides every service I desire and need and the employees including Ms Wendy are exceptional, friendly and accommodating. I sleep well knowing that my belongings are in a clean and safe environment guarded by professionals."
"I would like to "Thank the Employees." They are very friendly and easy to work with. They are very helpful and don't mind assisting you. They units are very clean and the place is kept up. I would highly recommend using them to store your procession. I will use them if I ever need to store stuff again."
"Sign up and And movin was absolutely amazingly easy online! I had just Driven 2200 miles from the West Coast and didn't know where to put my stuff.. When I checked out live storage on Google maps to see where it was located it prompted me to sign up and I did so in less than 10 minutes! The facility is fantastic, The security and the climate control stable and efficient. The only downside is that I wish they had a little bit longer access hours."
"Great facility! It’s very clean, especially for self storage. Mrs. Wendy was wonderful every time I was there for the past 2 years of me renting a unit! She was always helpful and remembered me every time I showed up! I would certainly recommend this Life Storage for anybody’s storage needs!"
"They’re very clean and well kept units. No leftover trash or anything of the sort when you get a new one. Their staff is wonderful! I definitely recommend them!"

"We all know moving isn’t fun! But Wendy and Rusty at Life Storage have both helped make the experience a lot easier. They’ve offered advice and had answers to all my questions. I always run into them cleaning throughout the facility and checking on everything."
"Rusty and Wendy were both fantastic, helpful, and courteous. The facility was well run, clean, and all climate controlled. I would hesitate to go back to them for any storage needs."
"The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, the units are clean, and no funky smell to the building at all like I've found at other places. I'd recommend this storage first to anyone!!"
"Absolutely a 5 STAR experience at this location! I've had many storage units over the years, with various companies, and the management here [Wendy and Rusty] run the best operation I've ever encountered, hands down.
They are knowledgeable, prompt, professional, polite, and courteous. It's so refreshing to encounter management that is CONSISTENTLY ahead both on the ball and ahead of the curve. Their experience is clear; from offering to leave you a cart to use after hours (before YOU realize you could/should request that) to ensuring the facility is impeccably clean (I've seen them deep cleaning crevices of the elevator I previously never noticed)...
If all of that isn't enough for you, let me also note: the temperature is always nice because it's ACTUALLY climate controlled, there are restrooms (always clean) and water fountains, and the place even smells nice. None of that happens by accident, and while an excellent facility/corporation is certainly the first step, a great deal of what matters most directly hinges on the diligence and professionalism of the management/staff. Frankly, Rusty and Wendy are as top-notch as they come!"

"Do Not Rent From This Corporation!! Yes they might be nice at first BUT If you get sick with Covid 19 and down for 4 months. From being a RN- Nurse working on acute covid unit. And get behind a month, The company will Sell your stuff with NO notice in the mail. Or email. Then send your nonpayment to Collection which was Not beyond 6 months. All my children history Gone!! All my Mother's things even our family china cabinet!!😢 I was a custom for Years!! Not some overnight customer. I would have given a negative 5 stars if I could have. Never Store close family items even if you live in a city with no storage on site. Make the room because you could end up like I did, Very Heart broken after my recovery."
"I used Life Storage a year ago and came back this year! I am a UL student who lives two hours away from home and feel so safe keeping my stuff here at Life Storage in Johnston Street. I highly recommend using this storage area. Wendy and the other workers have made me feel so welcomed and make me trust Life Storage. If I could I would give them 10 stars."
"Life Storage # 8038
4403 Johnston Street
Lafayette, La
My home was destroyed during hurricane Laura along with many others so your facility was the closest one to my home due to the high volume. You can only imagine the level of stress involved in a situation like this. I need you to know that Wendy was not only professional but related to us with a level of understanding and compassion. Wendy is a gem and a great representation of your company.
Approximately a month ago I had the privilege of talking to Rusty. It was hard to believe that he had been recently hired. He was kind and informative of any issues that would arise.
I cannot thank both Wendy and Rusty enough for making our experience PERFECT. If all of your facilities or like this one, I would recommend them to everyone."
"Mrs. Wendy was super helpful. I had lost my keys somewhere in my vehicle, and after searching high and low, she was nice enough to cut it off so I could get into my unit. Everything was quick. And she was actually mopping and cleaning the elevator at my arrival. It smelt nice and was super clean."
"I was told the first month would be free so I would pay an administrative fee I have $25 plus my $16 insurance fee by the time it was all said and done they charged me $307 then when I called to ask what is going on they don’t know what in the world is going on just goes to show you nobody knows what they’re doing!"
"This place is wonderful, staff is super helpful and attentive. The place is very clean and taken care of. Wendy is absolutely spectacular and super friendly! Will definitely never rent from anywhere’s else! Overall experience was phenomenal!"
"Wendy was absolutely amazing with getting us a unit ASAP! She is also super friendly! Our original life storage we booked at, wasn’t even open for us to get our unit, so i called this location and they got a unit for me very quickly! I HIGHLY recommend Wendy and the life storage facility on Johnston street in Lafayette!"
"Its a nice enough storage facility. Second floor units with a regular personnel elevator a problem though. Had to tetris a couch into the small elevator. Not fun"
"This place is very clean. Wendy is very nice and helpful. If I need a storage again I will definitely use them again. Will also recommend to friends."
"Never thought renting a storage space could be a fun experience...but the crew at Life Storage in Lafayette (Johnston and Camellia) made it great! 5 stars all around! Thank you guys!!"
"I called for employment questions and Mike went above and beyond to try and help me with all of my questions! Great customer service!! Keep up the great work mike!!😁"
"This storage is amazing. The store manager went above and beyond to accommodate me. I highly recommend using this storage facility. All units are climate controlled and it is very easy to navigate in and out. This storage provides you with carts to move in your things, making the transition into this storage so smooth. Thank you Life Storage staff for going above and beyond!!!!"
"I would definitely recommend this facility anyday, very clean, very cool air conditioned, and Mrs. Wendy is by far the sweetest, adorable, friendliest person I have ever met, she helped usout big time n we owe her so much, big props to Mrs. Wendy=š=š=š"
"The ladies are absolutely amazing and very professional when it comes to helping the customer. I walked in earlier this morning already pretty frustrated due to the moving process (and it was for the military) and they made the whole experience fun and easy with zero stress. I would definitely recommend them for any of your storage needs."
"Mrs. Wendy is the best! Helped us set up storage while we were moving and even when it was time to close our storage, mrs. Wendy helped us all the way."
"Extremely pleased with service. Wendy is wonderful. She knows me by name and units. Always very pleasant and helpful. Love her!
Would recommend to all. Inside storage unit is meticulous ! Security is great. I have been a customer for over a year and will be as long as I need storage.
Thanks so much."
"Great spot to store things. Staff here is polite and courteous. Mrs. Wendy invited me in as a stranger outside looking for a way in, and would she even would here out and nod along politely with my crazy stories while helping me find my storage unit that my mother changed out for me recently. Excellent place to be encouraged night or day. Neat and secure."
"DO NOT USE THIS FACILITY! My unit was infested with rodents and mold was on every surface and in every box. It appears that water somehow entered the unit and was neglected as I found water damage on my furniture and there were water marks on the floor. I had to dispose of most of my belongings, the insurance claim was DENIED, and I cannot get anyone to speak directly to me regarding these problems. I have been trying to resolve this for over a month and have been ignored and denied. Please see the pictures. That is a rodent hole in the couch where they nested and that is feces on the floor. My unit was on the first floor. This is not acceptable! I spent thousands of dollars to store here at what I believed would be a clean and high-end climate controlled building. I am furious!"
"I had the greatest experience at the Life Storage on Johnston St here in Lafayette!! Ms.Bienvenu & Ms.Freeman were the greatest help!! Ill definitely be recommending this location to ALL friends & family!!!!!!"
"This place is absolutely best storage friendliest people that work there. So nice & they keep you informed if something goes wrong with your unit. Our was unlocked and they do inspections and let us know asap."
"Wendy and Eichelland were super friendly and helpful! Not only is the facility super nice and clean, but those two made our moving experience so much easier!"
