Dianna was really helpful when I went to pick up my fridge and microwave. She guided me how to use the elevator since one of them wasn’t working and showed me around how to find my locker when I needed help. She is very patient and kind and really enjoyed her service

Dianna was very helpful in Cancelling my reservation. All I needed to do was tell her my name, my locker number, and that I wanted to cancel my reservation. It was that easy. Seeing as the entrance and exit process is fully automated, I find it strange that you are only allowed in during certain hours of the day but overall it was a good experience.

I had an issue with being billed for a unit I had already moved out a month ago and Sid did me a solid and helped me get it refunded. He was so friendly, attentive and helpful. He was the first person at that facility who actually cared about the renters and did his job with integrity and kindness. Not what has been my experience there so far for sure! I am pretty sure if it had been the other lazy man I would have been told "too bad" Keep Sid! Get rid of the lazy rude dude! Sid is a joy and cares about the place and the people! That is what you need! Especially with those horrible access hours!

The absolute only reason why I ended up confirming my rental from Public Storage at this location was because of Angel. When he went over the paperwork and gave us a tour of available spaces- thats what really made the difference for me. Above all else, if you feel you can trust the property manager, knowing someone like him is watching out for your personal safety and the safety of your personal items— it’s wonderful peace of mind. Not sure if you’ve heard but storage can be stressful. Angel is not only personable but professional as well and completely diffused my level of stress with his kindness, know-how & generosity. This is the exact someone any company would want representing them and whom I appreciate knowing is there watching over my little rental. Thank you PS. Thank you Angel. 5 stars!

Clean facility. Staff is nice and helpful, unfortunately it's difficult to get a person on the phone & the hours that they close the office for lunch and bank runs are not posted or consistent. So my trip before last should have taken 30 min but it took closer to 2 hours. Waiting for office to open so I could grab a dolly, then waiting for the office to open so I could return the dolly. Both times they were on-site, just not in the office, It was very frustrating.

I had the best customer service today from Angel at public storage. His smile brightens up the moment you step foot in that door his way of explaining in detail of your options makes it clear and understanding of your needs I have had the worst experiences in public storages specifically in Portola. If you want to rent out a space your best option is here.

It’s the middle of the day on a Wednesday, we arrive shortly after 1pm and door to the office, where the keep all the carts locked up for a massive three story indoor storage facility, has had this sign up that says, Our Manager Will Return By (with a clock that says) 2pm. No problem, this employee deserves a lunch break. I come back at 2pm for a cart, and now the clock has been changed to say 3pm, I wait in the parking lot for another hour until 3pm. We’re on the third floor, so it’s absolutely necessary that I need a cart. When I come back, the clock says 3:15pm. This time I wait around at the front door until an employee finally arrives, a few minutes past 3:15. When he opens the door, I ask him why no one has been here for over two hours, he promptly informs me that I need to calm down and that he is the only employee working today. I understand understaffing, I managed grocery stores for over a decade. What I don’t understand is why someone would take a 2 and half hour break in the middle of the day, if they knew they were the only employee on staff that day??? And if they knew they were going to be gone for an extended period of time, why would they keep all the carts locked up???
