    Read some helpful reviews of iStorage, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

    **Be aware, no working elevator in climate control!** The climate control worked as expected, and the unit was clean. However, during the three months we rented a unit, the elevator didn’t work at all. I was unaware I had a lower level unit to begin with, but the website stated there was an elevator. When we moved in and found it non-functioning, the office told us it’d be fixed in two weeks. When I called six weeks after that to inquire again, I was not-so-kindly offered a move out date or a $100 higher monthly rate for a main level unit after I asked about other options. Three months later, we moved out a 10’x15’ unit up the stairs without an elevator. As someone else noted, there were piles of tires in the middle of the road at random times as well. ... Read more

    I've rented a unit on the basement floor of the building for several months. For more than a month the elevator has been out of service which means I cannot move some of what I want to to my unit and I cannot get some of my items out of unit to leave and find somewhere else. I've called multiple times in the last few weeks and get connected to a call center who just tells me they are working on the issue. I have yet to hear from the local manager and im stuck paying monthly for this unit. I cannot fathom why it should take so long to fix an elevator that your customers rely on. Edit: in response to the comment from owner. I have called several times as detailed in my review and nothing has been done except telling me that the issue is being worked on. I was also told to expect a call from the owner the first time i called and never received a response. Im not going to repeatedly call and waste my time. Fix the problem or start refunding the people on the lower floor. None of us should have to pay when we have less access to our unit. I will update my review when the issue is adressed to let people know. Untill then i have to recommend again this place. Edit July 7th: the elevator is still out of service and i still have not spoken to anyone on site as the calls go to an AI then a call center. I storage has demonstrated either an unwillingness or inability to adress this issue and actually work with customers on problems that the company is responsible for. Edit July 8th: when I called yesterday I was told the local manager would call me. They never did. This is a recurrent theme at this point. Edit july 19th: elevator is still down, I still have not spoken to anyone on sight despite being promised multiple times that I would receive a call. Today is also the third time I've stopped by the office during normal business hours and found it closed. ... Read more

    Fantastic Service and a Shoutout to Michelle! I recently rented a storage unit at iStorage and had a wonderful experience. The facility was clean, secure, and easy to access. However, what truly made my experience exceptional was the outstanding customer service provided by Michelle. Michelle was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She patiently answered all my questions, provided valuable advice, and made the rental process seamless. Her friendly and professional demeanor created a welcoming atmosphere, which made me feel confident in my decision to choose this storage facility. I highly recommend iStorage to anyone in need of storage solutions. Be sure to ask for Michelle! ... Read more

    I would like to commend Michelle Rose for her excellent help when I had to empty a storage unit. When my padlock proved too stuck for my arthritic hands to open, she came by the unit and eventually was able to get it open for me. She also suggested resources for moving items to different locations. She made what seemed difficult actually relatively easy and was consistently polite and cheerful. ... Read more

    Great experience here! I only needed a storage unit for a few weeks and was a little worried about cancelling a monthly payment plan after only one month, but had no problems here! I called the office the day before moving out and they took care of everything for me. The staff here were very helpful too ! If they happened to be driving by while I was at my unit they always asked if I needed anything. Thanks iStorage!! ... Read more
