Read some helpful reviews of Colfax West Self Storage, 18180 West Colfax Avenue, Golden, CO 80401, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

We have rented from this place for several years. Anything that happens they have always gone above and beyond to make sure our needs are met, absolutely always recommend this place to anyone we know looking for storage. Prices are friendly and fair. In the winter their maintenance does an amazing job to do their best to keep grounds safe when there’s snow and ice. Their staff are friendly and helpful especially if they see you have brought in a heavy load. ... Read more

Courtney, you have no idea how easy you made finding the storages I needed be. I have not had this kind of experience in such a long time and I’ve been looking for the right storages for half the year. You rock and so does your dog sidekick. I’m super stoked. See you again on Sunday ... Read more

I really like the convenient access to multiple freeways (6/70/470) from this location. There is a restaurant/bar right nearby with lots of traffic which makes it seem a bit less sketchy than other storage lots located in more industrial areas. Facilities are basic but well maintained. ... Read more

I just rented a garage-sized unit. I went by first to check out what they have. There was a nice man who helped me and showed me the 2 different units I might have been interested in. He encouraged me to reserve a unit on-line for a discount which I did and got half-price for first 2 months. I then went in a did the contract which was also pretty easy. You have to use a certain type of lock. They sell them at a reasonable price or you can get your own. I bought one from them since it saved me a trip to the store. The unit and facility are basic but clean and well-maintained. The only slight downside was that I came in from out of town with a load of stuff to put in the storage on a Saturday and thought they might have been open till 5 but it turned out they close at 3 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday. This is just if you haven't yet signed a contract. Once you have your space, you can easily access your locker till 9 PM with an access code. Overall, happy with my choice of this facility since it's close to where I live. ... Read more
