    I’ve used Public Storage for years, primarily when they operated under the Simply Self Storage brand. However, it’s the same secure facility and most importantly, retained the same site manager. Kody is professional, knowledgeable, flexible and always dependable.I’d recommend this facility and Kody unhesitatingly. ... Read more

    This place is terrible. They have doubled the rate for my unit in the last 2 years since they bought out simply self storage. $200/mo for a 10x10 unit is ridiculous. There is never anyone in the office and it’s hit or miss whether the app or the gate code will actually work to let you in. There are multiple U-Haul locations in the immediate area that will rent the same size unit, indoors and climate controlled for half the price, and be far more accessible and friendly. Avoid here at all costs. ... Read more

    Today we went to use our locker and there is ice a half inch thick over half the lot. The ice is one lane wide down the length of the entire row of our unit . There is no safe way to access our unit. I went to the office and was told that it has been reported several times, with pictures, to no avail. The company won’t dispatch ice removal. The company is putting profits over safety! ... Read more
