    Read some helpful reviews of Albany Menands Self Storage, 1 Broadway Self Storage, Albany, NY 12204, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

    Clarence was excellent to work with and he was a great asset in helping me decide what storage unit to lease at this facility. He is very knowledgable and made me feel welcomed and confident in how to get around the facility (it was certainly a little intimidating for me to operate the garage door and freight elevator but Clarence was super patient with me and guided me through every step). I can tell in conversation that he cares about what he does, helps upkeep the facility and tries to provide the best tenant experience possible. Before my first visit, I had called the Customer Service line and they were responsive and helpful. The day when I checked out the available units, the manager's telephone # is made available in case he's around the facility and not in the office and Clarence picked up and met me pretty quickly. Just from the onboarding experience as a tenant, I'm optimistic that I will have a great experience leasing my storage unit here. Thanks Clarence for getting me set up! ... Read more

    Mia has been so helpful and the past few years here I’ve been well taken care of. Moving from dorms to apartments I finally have finished moving my things out and it went as smoothly as it could go, they’re very informative and keep you up to date when things are changing. Rates have been consistent, and when I needed to move units they found me a more affordable one. Been a customer for about 3 years :) ... Read more

    Todd W. - 8 October 2025
    Well I was there over 15 years. But in the last few years rent kept going up. It's almost doubled. They wanted to call me after my auto pay was denied because I had to get a new card. But instead of calling me right away, they waited 5 days after to call me and charge lat fee of $25. They when I canceled they didn't want to prorate my return. Renter beware! ... Read more
