    Facility is older. Very dusty and wet. The handle on my unit is broken off - they haven't replaced it. Came in with a $50/mo price on a mini unit. They raised the price to $83 after I was there for 2 months. Not including insurance, the setup fee, and lock fee that they charged the first month. Called to see if it was a mistake. They said no and that they wouldn't do anything about it. Folks, that's a 65% price increase after being a customer for 2 months. Bait and switch. Very unethical business and I'm blown away they have this many good ratings. I can't be the only person this has happened to. Moving out to a more ethical company. ... Read more
