"Great spaces for your storage. The climate control is good, we’ve had antiques in our unit and no problems with it. The staff are always friendly and kind."
"The management at Life Storage San Marcos #293 and the condition of the facility exceeded our expectations. During the application process they patiently walked us through and made sure we rented the right unit with our needs in mind."
"From the first call to find out about pricing to the moment I moved in my things it was a great experience. Their customer service is fantastic. I will definitely be using their services for any storage needs going forward."
"What's your store number 293
David was outstanding in his customer service his knowledge of the facilities and his ability to give me answers to all of my questions I think he needs to be a regional manager at $250,000 a year thank you"
"I have a unit here and from day one David has helped me and was very nice from start to finish. Whenever i need to call David has all of the answers. He's got a great personality and he's good with people. This particular place is always clean and i like knowing that it's gated and my stuff is safe. I know whenever i need a unit, they will do their best to accommodate me. Thank you life storage."
"I thought the manager was super helpful and that the facility was great. The interior layout was very clever, clean, blessedly cool (even in hot Texas) and there was always a cart when we needed one, though I think this could be a problem on some days, I think more carts should be stored at the various entry points."
"I'm completely appalled by the lack of respect and morality of the employees at this business. My partner was told he'd receive a military discount upon purchasing a storage unit before he leaves for basic training. Considering he hasn't received his military ID just yet, he was told he needed to provide his contract for proof. After reviewing his contract, the employee told him that military discounts are not offered to army reserves, only those is active duty. NEWS FLASH, army reserves is STILL military. And he will technically be in active duty during the period he will need the storage unit. I'm completely disgusted with the way this situation was handled. I would rate this facility a zero if I could."
"I would post no stars, but that isn’t an option. We had our items in storage for nearly 3 years at this facility. We paid a considerable amount of money for 2 storage units, which the price kept increasing. When we moved back to the country and removed our items they were moldy, rusted, and some was ruined. It took considerable time to fix everything. I asked the manager about it since they were installing dehumidifiers the day we were moving out. He said he would write a note for me to file on my insurance. I don’t want to file on my insurance. I paid to have our items stored in a climate controlled environment. I contacted the corporate office hoping to hear something back from them to rectify the problem, but no response. Super disappointing and heartbreaking to have family heirlooms unrecognizable and destroyed. Here’s just a few pictures of what we found when unpacking."
"The Location in San Marcos 2216 Wonder World Dr. Hilda Balli took care of me and can i just how AMAZING GREAT EXPERIENCE I HAD. I had went to a previous Storage Unit in New Braunfels (CubeSmart) and the lady at the front counter was just Rude/Angry the whole visit. Then i called another place and they just seemed like i was bothering or interrupting their day. Okay Buh Bye. On to anotha, LIFE STORAGE. I'm glad i met Hilda. On the PLUS SIDE. Life Storage is MUCH BETTER than the rest. 5P"
"I was very impressed with this particular location of Life Storage. I had originally stopped at the wrong location on IH-35 and was greeted by a very rude gentleman who made me feel like I was interrupting his day and was being a bother. He informed me that I was at the wrong location so I left and traveled further down the road to the correct location of Life Storage. It was a complete 360 from what I just encountered. The young lady that assisted me with my reservation was so very pleasant and such an awesome people person! I was very impressed with her and she made an awesome impression. She was so very kind, helpful, showed me the storage room, and explained all the paperwork in detail and then proceeded to ask if I had any questions or needs before submitting my required fees. I didn't feel rushed or treated like I was just another $1 for the company. She walked me through every little step and for that, I was so thankful as it was quite a stressful time with moving my..."
"Really friendly, professional and explained all costs in advance so there were no surprises for the most part. The only thing that was a surprise was that you have to purchase a very special lock that only they have on site or perhaps you have from a prior stay. Overall, that was the only surprise. I wish that it had not been such an expensive lock with such a specific purpose that it cant be used anywhere else."
"David is amazing! I have a high standard and he exceeds my expectations. He is always friendly, helpful, knowledgable and treats the property like he owns it. I wish everyone took such pride in their work."
"Very clean and the manager was extremely professional while friendly. Had planned on only one unit, but took 3 based on what I experienced. Am new to town. I still need one more."
"The facility is always clean and bright. The building manager was extremely thorough and personable. I have no concerns about my items being stored here."
"The facility was spotless. Associate was very thorough. Wish I could remember his name, David maybe?? Anyway, He was more than thorough and helpful. Would definitely recommend this facility."
"My husband and I are thoroughly satisfied with our experience with Life Storage. The facility is immaculate. We feel our belongings are in great hands there. The Manager is ALWAYS friendly and helpful!! I cannot say enough good things about your facility in San Marcos, TX!!"
"My parents were affected by the Memorial Day flood in San Marcos Texas. Dave the manager was very helpful as I had never needed storage space and we were so overwhelmed. Dave took the time to explain everything to us and continued to work with us.
Thank you..."
"The cost for the storage unit is too expensive. Consider lowering the overall prices on the storage units. Consider an alternative, less expensive storage unit before leasing a storage unit with Uncle Bod's."
"The manager on duty, David, was very friendly and understood my needs and helped me get the paperwork completed quickly. He anticipated my questions and answered them before I could ask. Great job! It was unexpected compared to the other storage facilities I had visited that day."
"I have enjoyed my time here at uncle bobs it has been a pleasure for the past 4 years the only thing that I dislike is that they went up on my price because they said my rent was to low and needed it to go up to offset the other units pricing, i thought this was VERY unfair!"
"I appreciate the professionalism of the staff and how they genuinely appear interested in helping me. Nice people, and always a good experience dealing with them."
"The contracting did not take more than 30 minutes from beginning to end. I was pleased. I know I asked the same question various times and our attendant was more than happy to answer each time, I had no questions about the contract, which is good, I tend to be leary of contracts, but it was all explained very well"
"The sales associate was very knowledgeable and interested in my needs. He was very thorough explaining the rental process and took me on a tour of the building."
"The first time I walked into this storage facility, I was EXTREMELY impressed with the cleanliness. I felt like you could eat off the floor!! And, the Manager was extremely helpful. He answered every question, with no pressure to rent there. It was just a wonderful experience from start to finish."
"i loved that it was open until 9pm which was helpful since i worke everyday. i felt safe going by myself and can rarely say that about this city. great place!"
"It was a great experience! I know a lot of people just say that, but it really was. The staff was so friendly and helpful and the storage unit was really clean and well kept! Thank you guys for everything!"
"It was my first time renting a storage and you certainly fulfilled my requirements. I can compare services now because I just rented another storage at College Station and your facilities and services are excellent compared to theirs,"
"He was helpful to show me how to extend the side door to give more width for larger items. He was very professional and prompt. Very neat in his appearance . I was able to understand him when explaining all procedures and rules. "
"I like the ability to pay rent on line.
I like the ability to pay several months in advance.
I like the monthly emails saying thst I am either prepaid or owe a payment.
Location is convinient with easy in and out of the building."
"Love Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. Wouldn't store our stuff anywhere else.
The only thing we have to mention, though, is that the office itself smells funny. Like really old smoke or something. In fact, the whole building has an odd smell. Not enough to make us move our stuff though. "
"The staff was so friendly, it really calmed me down when I was really stressed about moving. It was so expensive, though, which was the only real thing that displeased me."
