The office team is very friendly and helpful. Facilities are clean and kept up nicely. No pressure to sign up for extras I didn't need. Cubesmart recently handed ownership back to Affordable Family The office team is very friendly and helpful. Facilities are clean and kept up nicely. No pressure to sign up for extras I didn't need. Cubesmart recently handed ownership back to Affordable Family Storage, so that will be an unknown for me, but generally local companies pricing is better than algorithm based chain companies. I have always been happy with Cubesmart facilities, which is why I originally chose this place. Reason I scored low is first, one of the garage doors is broken, and has been since I moved my stuff in. That makes it highly inconvenient and a tight squeeze for everyone to share the middle door. Secondly, there's only one cart in the whole facility. I hope the new owners invest in some carts for customer use. For now, it's highly recommended to byo, otherwise you might have to wander the halls looking for one ... Read more

We rented a storage unit here in November and kept it for three months. Overall, it served its purpose, but there were both positives and negatives to our experience. Positives: • Great Customer Serv We rented a storage unit here in November and kept it for three months. Overall, it served its purpose, but there were both positives and negatives to our experience. Positives: • Great Customer Service – The front desk manager was incredibly helpful, super nice, and very welcoming. I have absolutely no complaints about her customer service—she was fantastic! • Affordable – The price was reasonable and fit our needs at the time. Challenges: 1. Difficult Access – When we first moved in, our unit was located far back in the facility. Unfortunately, the closest door for easy access was broken, and despite renting for three months, it was never fixed. When we moved out, that door was still broken, making it much harder to get our stuff out. 2. Cart Availability Issues – When we first moved in, they did have carts available, which was super convenient. However, when we came back to move everything out, there was only one cart, and someone else was using it. When we returned to grab it, we saw another person go in, take the cart, and leave with it. Since the facility has security cameras and individual access codes, I’m surprised they’re not able to track or charge people who take carts and don’t return them. This made moving out a lot more difficult than expected. 3. Security Concerns – The facility is in an area where we noticed random people walking around who seemed sketchy. Because of this, we felt the need to have someone stay near the U-Haul at all times while moving our belongings. 4. Parking Challenges – It’s not easy to access with a U-Haul truck because the parking lot is extremely small, making it difficult to maneuver. If multiple people are moving at the same time, it becomes a tight squeeze, and there’s a risk of cars getting scraped. If you’re looking for a cheap storage unit and can deal with these challenges, then this place might work for you. However, given the broken access doors, cart issues, and difficult parking situation, I wouldn’t personally rent here again. That said, the management was great, and I believe some of these issues are due to the location rather than poor service. ... Read more
