"SONIA is a major asset to life storage! the customer service provided far exceeds any other storage rental faculty I've ever experienced. let sonia take care of all your needs!"
"Three overhead doors, zero work, fell on ice in parking lot, place was priced right and spotless, dirty now, price is higher, rest room out of service, no cash allowed, it's Lynn at it's best on autopilot"
"It seems that whenever I call to make a payment they’re closed, even though its well before closing hours. I just tried to make a payment over the phone and there was a glitch there as well. Now I’ll be charged a late fee because I didn’t make my payment on time! Think it’s time to look for a new storage facility."
"Clean and well secured building. I reserved a 5x5 and it looked like a square stacked 4 high locker. Increased to 5x 10 the one available had a support pole in the middle. Had some difficulty getting in. I left message. I sat and waited for 15 min then left. I was called, and went back. The woman was nice and tried to help me but she was having difficulty finding a unit. I'm handicapped and couldn't walk for inspection. She's being helpful and I'll speak to her tomorrow"
"Had a great experience today at Life Storage. We showed up and although their system was down. Jessica walked us through the whole online process and was very patient with us. She was extremely informative and friendly. She really was fantastic especially considering her system wasn't functioning properly (not her fault). She did everything she could to make the process quick and easy. Moving and storing things can be stressful and Jessica's upbeat attitude and friendly smile made it that much less stressful. Thanks Life Storage and Jessica, we are very pleased!"
"I was very excited to find this low cost alternative that was highly rated on Google. My experience was not good.
I reserved a unit online. I called and was assured the facility would be open on Saturday when I arrived with my things. I arrived with a U-Haul truck full of my belongings and friends to help me bring it in only to find the place closed.
I called the office and got no answer. I proceeded to call the emergency # posted at the entrance. The representative on the phone was very polite and apologetic but, she could not reach the manager or anyone else at the facility.
I had to go online to find another facility on the Lynnway to store my things within minutes. They say you get what you pay for. I got amazing response and customer service at Public Storage down the road. I guess things happen for a reason. Just beware"
"Terrible experience - office never staffed, no-one responds to online inquiries, elevator is not large enough to fit a couch or any large home items, garage door in cargo bay closest to the elevator doesn't work, large poles in the cargo bay area make it hard to load a truck, did not provide the lock that we paid for"
"The storage unit itself is modern. And it is well lit. It doesn't have that hopeless, "haunted" feel to it. The staff are also all extremely friendly. Some aspects of the operation are extremely well thought-out and very well-organized.
I did not like the additional surprise fees tacked on to the final costs... Required Insurance fees, Lock charge (although I had my own lock), administration fee, taxes, etc.
Additionally, they were so heavily dependent on the technology that when it failed, it resulted in huge inconveniences to me that no one wanted to accept responsibility for, nor did anyone seem to know how to fix!"
"Since I’ve been a customer at the Lynn Ma location I’ve always been treated with great customer service! Place is always clean, smells very clean, and if I needed help I got it ! If I was ever asked if I knew of a storage place that ppl could go to HANDS DOWN “LIFE STORAGE”
But two things I’d improve MORE LOCATIONS, and show how to use elevator when first joining!
Other then that out of all the storages I’ve used LIFE STORAGE IS TRULY THE BEST!
And SONIA IS TRULY KIND AND VERY GREAT WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE! It was a pleasure to have her help me today ! She’s a WONDERFUL LADY ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻"
"I love Life Storage in Lynn, MA!! The facility is sooo clean... The Staff is amazing— especially Jessica the Manager!! They are sooo helpful!! I have been a customer for over seven years and I recommended this facility to all of my family and friends. They even have storages here now. The rental prices are great.. I have a 10 x 20 and the size of my unit is perfect!!"
"I have rented a space here for several years. The facility is clean and easy to access. I've had to change units within this facility a few times and that was super easy. The staff is also great. Jessica, the manager, signed us up and has been great to work with ever since. During a recent visit she even had a sanitation ready for me with hand wipes."
"They don't send you a bill but they happily charge you the $20 late fee. No Email, no postal mail. No notification at all. Set you own reminders! Shame on me for thinking "Ill just pay it when they send a bill".
Otherwise mostly fine. Hours don't make sense, though. The place is automated with key codes, but you can still only access between 7 and 7. Pretty bad hours for anyone who works a 9-5."
"The service was excellent and very friendly. The manager, Jessica, helped me find the ideal storage space for my belongings and found me the best deal possible. I have peace of mind knowing that my belongings are secure in their storage space due to all of the security measures that are set in place. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone."
"BEST Customer Service! Friendly, and price is alright w/todays economy. I wouldn't want my stuff anywhere else while I'm looking for an apt 2move into. These times are tough. Just wish there was a restroom at times."
"I like Life Storage and they have cheaper rates compared to Public Storage. Since I been a customer there they have raised the rent four times since 2018. Life Storage stated that due to high demand they raised the rates. One more rate increase they prices will be like Public Storage."
"Jessica was wonderful and extremely helpful with my move in process. She made everything so smooth and productive. Definitely recommend this facility to any of my family members and friends."
"Two days in a row we have come to close our unit. Both times the person is out to lunch for hours. They open at 12. How are you closing for lunch at 130."
