Customer Reviews - Life Storage #7205, Milwaukee
We at Life Storage want to maintain the best storage facilities in Milwaukee, and in every city where we do business.
Take a look at all the good things our customers say about this Life Storage, and all of our stores! It thrills us to give customers the best customer service possible, and to hear when they are pleased with how we have taken care of their storage needs.
"My husband Jeremy doesn’t typically leave reviews, so he wanted me to leave one for Jennifer. Jennifer was very nice and patient when we arrived. Her system was down and she still had a smile on her face and calmly apologized to each person who came in. Although it wasn’t her fault, she still made a stressful situation more pleasant. She called him once the system was back up and running too. Definitely appreciate her being patient."
"Jennifer is extremely customer friendly and helpful. She goes above and beyond to insure your customer experience is professional and pleasant. We need more management/ customer representatives like her!!!"
"Omg!!! Jennifer at the 1131 N. 8th St. Location was so awesome and so very helpful & polite explained all the logistics to me thank you for a wonderful customer service experience which is so rare today keep that Beautiful smile"
"Jennifer was so wonderful and accommodating! She explained everything to me, walked me to my unit, and helped me through the payment process. I would give her 10 stars if I could!"
"Honestly, if it wasn't for Jennofer being like a superhero for real, we probably would be storing our units of stuff somewhere far inferior to this location. Being able to drive in and load/unload is also a big feature, and the location is well maintained and feels quite secure. That all adds up to a 5-star experience, but Jennifer 100% put it all far above expectations."
"Jennifer is the bomb excellent customer services skills actually took the time out to show me the unit which I wanted to make sure was appropriate to my liking and patience as well never got"
"Jennifer was very friendly and she was very patient in showing us the different sizes of storage and recommending the best size for us. I really enjoyed Jennifer's customer service experience! Thank you Jennifer!"
"Amazing facility!
You can drive right in, use their carts and elevators to easily get your stuff to your unit.
When it came time to get all my stuff out I called and Jennifer at the 8th street location was super helpful and got me squared away in under 2 minutes.
Great experience.
Clean. Secure. Easy."
"Ever since life storage took over, the overall quality has significantly declined. The facility is very dirty almost every time I have gone in recently. There is a water leak with stale, standing water that hasn't been taken care of for over a month and it smells moldy and musty. Extra space space had cheaper rates for the same sized units and the facility was always clean with employees always on site. Very disappointed with life storage's management of this site."
"Employees very nice and helpful. First time renting, and manager guided me to my storage as I was a bit confused on how to get to it. She made sure I knew how the lock worked because it was also confusing🤣. Keep up the good work, I bought tape from front desk . And she was pleasant as well. Also good phone etiquette."
"From beginning to end, S. Ramirez was extremely helpful in the process for renting a storage unit. I was able to meet the need for the time I had the unit. The rental was done # 7207 6805 S. 27th Street."
"Awesome customer service...front desk staff is absolutely helpful and amazing. Prices are more than reasonable. Will definitely refer friends and family."
"Raquel H, should be cloned. Allow me to explain, I somehow managed to bend my key. I then went to the office but they were closed. I then called Lifestorage and was directed to another location. When I entered the other location, I seen how busy she was (helping multiple customers) I began to think I won't be able to retrieve my things. Long story short she litterly drove to the other location to help me and another guy. She had a positive attitude the while time. She's an example of True customer service with integrity something the world is missing good job Rachel!!!"
"I am so glad I chose Life storage! The whole experience was so easy thanks to Crystal and Jennifer. They were so kind & really made sure I chose the space that would work best for me. Overall so happy with my experience!"
"First let me say the Employees are very kind and helpful and the facility is very clean and safe. I am however very disappointed, I feel the company who owns the storage place is some what taking advantage of customers, let me explain... They won't let you use your own lock, you have to purchase one of there's, you have to get insurance as well. You also have to pay extra to have 24hour access to your unit. So what we thought would be less than 50 dollars came to over 150$..It boggles my mind, yes we could have gone somewhere else but this was in the right location and we had already made plans to use that location. We honestly never thought we would be paying so much over the unit price. We have learned a good lesson from this experience..."
"This place is kind of okay excellent customer service but poor trying to reach them or to pay a bill the thing I hate most about this place is that they raise the rent almost every 3 to 5 months and they won't tell you they just put it on your invoice sitting in the email won't give you the chance to see if you want to pay the price but make sure the beginning of the month or before it's already started let you know there's an increase so you must pay clearly I don't like this company at all I wish anyone the best"
"Great workers!! Every problem that I had they made sure that there was a solution on how to fix it. Every question I had they answered even with the questions they didn’t have answers to they made sure to check in with someone to help me better understand it."
"Thoroughly enjoyed my experience renting a storage locker from Life Storage on 8th St (as much as a person can truly enjoy this experience haha). As a new customer, the move-in deals are unreal. Given its location downtown, I thought I'd be paying a premium compared to the other storage facilities around town, but with the move-in deal, the prices really were quite comparable. But honestly, the customer service here is excellent and makes renting here worth it. Crystal and Jennifer are the absolute best. They are efficient and really know what they're doing. The sign up paperwork can be completed online but I chose to spend more time with them because I had such a wonderful experience talking to Crystal on the phone about the unit. They are kind and hilarious and super helpful. They are very responsive and if they don't answer your call right away, they will call you back really soon.
The amenities are great:
1. It's a drive in location (and I had my locker on the first floor) so the weather didn't matter as much. It of course rained on both my move-in and move-out dates so we were extra thankful that the storage locker was at least inside.
2. They have a door that has high enough clearance for big moving trucks to park inside as well. We had a 12 foot truck for move-in but the relocation company's large truck also had no issues with the clearance.
3. There are multiple flat-bed carts that are super helpful with loading and unloading and they all navigate well.
4. It's a climate-controlled facility. My locker was open to air with a fence over the unit but honestly I had no issues with it.
My only issue is the hours. It's currently 6am-6pm which makes for very limited availability for people who work full-time jobs. We would basically only be able to make one run during the weeknights which I think totally slowed our progress with the move-out of our home. I wish they were open until at least 7pm if not 8pm. I would certainly appreciate longer access times. I'm sure the night owls are with me on this one.
Other than that, I don't think you'll be disappointed. I haven't been!"
"Jennifer was amazing! She was so helpful and made sure we had the easiest experience possible. She also kept us smiling with her kind sense of humor. Highly recommend!!"

"Jennifer was so professional & helpful when I spoke with her on the phone! She thoroughly answered all my questions & she was so sweet!! Great communicator!! Finally I came across someone who provided wonderful customer service!!
When I visited site she provided the same great customer service!! So refreshing! Thank You Jennifer!!!"
"Jennifer and Crystal in the office went above and beyond to transform a frustrating situation into something that actually put a smile on my face. These ladies care about their customers and it shows. Not to mention, the facility itself is new, clean, and secure. Checks all the boxes for me! Couldn't be more grateful for their kind assistance! 🙏"
"I am new to MKE and needed to store literally my prior house until I found a new place (luckily it only took a year). I chose Life Storage on 8th St MKE b/c
1. Good location
2. Clean
3. Climate controlled
Total bonus is the nice front office staff. Example: Jennifer is fast, efficient, and friendly. I love how fast the sign up, transfer, and end processes are.
Life Storage MKE 8th St is not inexpensive but is appropriately priced for quality of product/service."
"Jennifer was very helpful, she went over and beyond. My experience was very smooth. I highly recommend you ask for Jennifer if you have to utilize life storage!!"

"This place was awesome when it was owned by Extra Space Storage. Now the floor is always dirty, it smells weird, and is just not as clean as it once was. Extra Space used to buff the floors every night. The original garage door still doesn’t work after months and months of being broken. Very disappointed."
"THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER. CRYSTAL TOWNSEND AT THE 8TH STREET LOCATION IN MILWAUKEE IS VERY PROFESIONAL AND MILD MANNER. SHE HELPFUL AS WELL. IN FACT THE ENTIRE TEAM WAS SOO HELP. KREG THE MANAGER AND JENNIFER THE OTHER CSR HELP ME TREMENDOUSLY IN SELECTING A COST SUFFICIENT UNIT.

"Best experience ever!! Chris was amazing and his customer service was impeccable! Life Storage has great rates, a clean, secure facility, and a smooth application and setup process. Highly recommend!"
"Second time using this facility. It’s clean, new, climate controlled, and most importantly secure. I have also received great customer service with each engagement with the team."
