"This facility is very convenient.
The prices are very fair especially compared to locations in and around Brooklyn.
They have indoor parking which during winter time and on rainy days is a life saver. Also big u-haul trucks can fit in the indoor parking spots making unloading a breeze. The parking lot is big and has adequate parking available. It's a very clean spot and I would absolutely recommend."
"Great location with no carts. It happens all the time..no carts.
Ask for Managment… no call back.
Waiting over an hr for cart…. MY STAFF IS WASTING TIME… and we left not able to unload materials. Now 8 hrs later he going to return.
Who is paying for the lost time? Will there be loading cart available???
To be continued!"
"Osiris, the Store Manager, was awesome. Her patience, knowledge of facility, professionalism & customer service were all exceptional 👍🏾 That alone made me feel comfortable & want to lock in a storage unit right away."
"Nothing less than great service at this location! I recommend to all my close family and friends. Once you arrive, they’ll take care of you with white glove experience! Thanks again!!"
"Employee was not able to handle all customers but it wasn’t up to her it was up to her management since they let just one person to run around this gigantic space. Besides it this storage is very nice, clean, climate control, with 24/7 access, very reasonable price, brand new. The only problem I have every time is lack of human power here"
"Only recommendation I have is if you are renting online, be careful. In the description some of the lockers say "Upper Level". This means you will need a ladder to reach them. Otherwise, great service."
"Just got off the phone with Michelle from the Ave M. Location and am super thrilled about the experience! She is the very definition of terrific customer service. I was in a tight jam concerning my storage unit and she was able to offer the perfect solution that just made my day so much easier. Thanks again Michelle and Life Storage team. Cheers."
"In a great central location, the facility manager was extremely helpful in quickly setting me up with a unit.
Everything appears neat and orderly and I would recommend anyone needing storage to check this location out!"
"The operators of this facility must be from a warm climate as they don't believe in snow removal nor hiring a capable contractor. This is at least the second time that snow was not cleared after a storm; neither from inside the gated lot nor the public sidewalk as required by NYC law. Days after the last storm in the middle of the night three pathetic 'guys' showed up in a white pickup truck, hung out for a while doing absolutely nothing and then gave up after a few minutes of trying to plow the snow that had melted a bit since that storm and then frozen solid."
"Great location thanks Nicole you took your time with my husband and I finding the right size and made us feel very welcomed even cleaned the bathroom for us very sweet will definitely recommend to my family and friends"
"I highly recommend this facility especially when we've had nothing but positive experiences in the rental of our two units. Working with Osiris is the primary reason for our complete satisfaction."
"I had an amazing experience with Osiris Alvarez.
She is absolutely professional, respectful, accurate and 100 % helpful.She helped me with all my questions, showed me everything and helped me to understand what to use and how to use.She gave me all options on all my questions .She is very knowledgeable! Besides this she is a very polite and nice person!
The COVID rules and procedures are 100% correct in this place.
I strongly recommend this place!"
"The staff is very helpful and facility is very clean. Dayna was a big help and knew her stuff. She helped me pick the right unit for my needs. I definitely recommend her and Ave M for your storage needs"
"I had a very GOOD experience at Ave M . Dayna walked me and husband through the process and explained everything very clearly. She is a very knowledgeable and very patient person."
"I looked all over for an affordable but trustworthy storage unit, and I'm very satisfied with Life Storage! I needed to upgrade to a bigger unit on the day that I was moving into storage, and when I called, Dayna was extremely accommodating of my request! Also love the 24/7 access!"
"I've had a unit for two months and have no complaints. Saw a very patient and professional staff member deal with just a hobgoblin of a woman today, and I'm impressed. I certainly wouldn't have been able to maintain myself. Will continue to do business here."
"I highly recommend coming here. They give you access 24/7 which I love. The place is very clean. DAYNA IS SO HEPFUL! She made a complicated day much easier with her communication and customer service. She was concise, sweet, funny and very straightforward. I highly recommend calling and speaking to her she tries her best to make sure the customer is happy at all costs."

She showed me all my available options and explained what differences they had... If you are looking for a storage facility look no further. Make sure you see Dayna you will not be disappointed.."
