I highly recommend this location, ensure to request Amanda to receive expectional customer service. She's the best!"
"After having life storage for a few months now I can say that they’re very kind at the beginning but for the last 3 months they have been telling me that they have ordered a ladder and have been checking shipping confirmations. This ladder is essential for me since I have an elevated unit."
"Associates always helpful. My access easy, no fuss my first time anything I need during office hours available if not available always an alternative. Much appriciate the kind curtious service.
My only issue is the car access with piguon poop an pigeons above.its never sanitary but even more so
now. Please help them get that and the bird feces under control."
"I normally do not write reviews but I had the best experience with Jalen the Associate-store manager. Jalen went above and beyond in showing me the locker twice- answered all my questions and had the patience of a saint.
He is an exceptional person; very personable, nice and offered to help with my belongings.
Ask for Jalen - besides being a gentleman I received the best customer service.
Dina"
"Jalen was so patient and helped us find the correct size storage unit for our needs! He was friendly and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend."

"Rented Unit #3004 Amanda the manager is knowledgeable, courteous and professional and made rental process very easy. She is a great asset to your organization"
"Joined not too long ago and was greeted by Amanda. She has excellent customer service and knows all the right things to say to make the customer feel at peace with leaving their possessions there. Everything was explained in detail and i feel that my stuff is as secure as it can be in a storage unit. Thanks for your excellent customer service."
"Amanda was awesome. She explained everything really well and double checked that everything worked before I left. She was great and walked me though everything before giving me her card and telling me to email her any time with any other questions I might have."
"My review is not about the services but about the rent increase they slapped on my account.
I called the main office and was told someone would call me back from the management. No one did.
I called today and spoke to a female employee who was not flexible at all. She just gave me a talk about how everyone is getting an increase. And as a customer in good standing she would still not be able to do anything about it.
A price increase in a quarter of the original payment schedule total is ridiculous. Now I have to have the hassle of looking elsewhere and time/money spent dragging my stuff elsewhere. A real pain in the you know what."
"The Manager Amanda was very helpful as she was able to show me around until I was able to feel comfortable with a unit. She was able to explain all of the rules as I was not familiar with them prior to arriving. Amanda has great customer service skills."

"Manny is the greatest Life Storage employee who gave my husband and I exceptional service. He will go above and beyond to make customers happy! He was extremely helpful and took the time to make sure we rented exactly the storage unit we wanted and needed! Great Job Manny!!!"
"It’s an very clean and well positioned location for my needs. The manager Manny Rodriguez is knowledgeable and personable. He’s made my intake process seamless and on challenging days like moving days are, he makes it extremely smooth. I wouldn’t go anywhere else."

"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."
"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!
