Very impressive facility! The staff was very friendly, but dos have some technical issues when it came time to sign the lease, which slowed down the process, but overall very pleased.

Jheromell Arcilla is the manager of this facility and consistently goes above and beyond the basic level of service I have experienced at other storage facilities. I highly recommend using this Acorn Self-Storage over any other option.Full Review

Their customer service is likely the best I have experienced in the service sector. After punching in our access code to enter the facility, they immediately sent a representative to greet us at the unit and have it unlocked and ready to use. The entire facility is spotless clean, and air conditioned as advertised. Lots of space in both elevators, and three loading docks so you don't have to fight with others for space. They also have dolley's and a bunch of moving carts to help, so you don't need to carry all your heavy boxes by hand. We completed everything online the night before, which took about 10-15 minutes to read and sign. Very easy, and comes with automatic payment options, plus insurance can be added. Would recommend to anyone. Also, during the recent covid situation, they have complementary hand sanitizer at the entrance, and everyone we saw was practicing social distancing + wearing face masks. Felt very safe!Full Review

Michael was extremely helpful and made my storage experience exceptional. Easy to find and get in and out of. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone. Thank you!Full Review

Personally saw a rat inside my unit after visiting after 8 months, in addition to lots of rat droppings. Extremely frustrating, as I had been expecting a generally clean facility with robust pest control if required, after moving out of a pest-free 18th floor apartment. Am simply storing furniture, electronics, clothing and kitchenware inside the unit. Additionally, local or regional management failed to reply to my inquiry as promised, and had to leave the state to return to work. I am still left wondering what will be done to remedy the situation. The idea of rats rummaging through all my boxes and items sucks, to say the least. To top it off, prices have increased across the board as well. If I had any indication that this storage facility had pest issues, I would have never rented this storage unit.Full Review

Thanks for all your prompt help Maurice (Mgr) and team.Full Review

I booked my storage online and called the storage to confirm. I told them I was on my way to see the storage and sign my lease. When I got there the staff were very friendly and already had my paper work ready. We immediately went up stairs to view my storage Bin within 1 minute of me walking in. Afterwards I was taken back to the front desk to sign my lease and pay my first month fees. I was done with the whole process within 10 mins. Not only was the staff fast, but professional and friendly. I definitely recommend cubesmart!!!! The storage facility is spotless and the staff are superb!!!! A+++++++++++ ratingFull Review
