After looking at several units and spaces for a short term rental I found this place. The guys in the office are great to deal with. They are organized and clearly explained costs and how everything is set up. The space itself is well maintained and everything functions. Security is good here which is certainly important for a storage facility. If I ever needed to rent a space again this is my first choice.

Johnny was very polite, fast, patient, and informative. It took know time for him to introduce me to my double storage unit. I recommend everyone to ask for him when renting space
