Thomas was extreme helpful. I made a reservation at another Extra Space and the spot wouldn’t work for my travel trailer. Adrianna and Thomas moved mountains for me to find me a spot that would work, and Thomas stayed with me to get backed in and make sure I was happy with the spot before and after I was parked. I appreciate you both!
