    Decent rates, easy access, above and beyond help. I’ve had a unit here for 3 years. The staff go above and beyond when I don’t have another person to help me move things in and out. Service is friendly, the location is secure, monitored, clean and managed well. ... Read more

    Anselmo runs a tight ship. The place is always clean, organized, accessible, and in great working order. Rates are reasonable, but within the Public Storage brand this is a real stand out due to the great staff! ... Read more

    Renting with Public Storage was a total breeze; the facility is spotless and incredibly secure. The owner was professional and friendly, making the entire process feel like a walk in the park. If you're looking for a stress-free home for your extra gear, I can’t recommend them highly enough! ... Read more

    I was told there was an elevator when I moved in -early Nov… here I am moving out mid Feb and still no working elevator. What I love is this has gone down hill since I moved it… it no longer has carts to help load and unload the units. No one answers the call. No one has returned my call back. No help not worth the time and energy! Can’t wait to be out of here and will never recommend this place to anyone ... Read more

    I came here straight from the hospital and was very much in pain. I came to pay my bill and Anselmo was not only helpful But his positive attitude was contagious. I wish there were more people like him in this world it because the world would be a better place. Public Storage is lucky to have a person like him managing the property I can’t express this enough. ... Read more

    DO NOT STORE YOUR BELONGINGS HERE! I got absolutely screwed by the property manager by getting placed in a second floor unit and their elevators are fully broken. They were of no help either when speaking with customer service ... Read more

    I’ve been a good tenant for about 10 years. My daughter and my sister are also clients. Unlike many storage facilities the Merrydale location appears clean and safe. The restroom is the cleanest I’ve ever seen. I’ve always received excellent service from site manager, Ramon. I would like to give a special shout-out to Vivian. She has an excellent attitude, provides amazing service and is extremely polite and attentive. Bothe Vivian and Ramon are a pleasure to deal with. A+++ ... Read more
