Had a great experience all the way around! HIGHLY recommend! Best part other than clean well taken care of units was not having a time restriction on accessing my things. Available to get in and out 24hrs which came in really convenient on multiple occasions. Even after leaving the Hobart area I decided to keep the unit there because after trying extra space storage previously and having a bad experience it was just smartest to stay at Flying Sky Ranch Storage. Pluuuusssss good luck finding a cheaper place that isn't going to hit you with "oh that was just a limit time promotion price" when they hike the price up 3 months in.
