Reviews

  • Michael McNicholas

Fantastic experience. The manager called after I made an online reservation, and couldn't have been nicer or more helpful in confirming the size unit I may need and setting up a time to come in. Then, when I went in to view the unit and "sign" (virtually) the paperwork, the assistant manager who was on site that day was equally helpful and nice. The space is clean, seems to be very well maintained, easy to access via multiple ramps, and there are two elevators and plenty of carts to help move things from your vehicle to your storage unit. Just about a week in, but would recommend. Great deals online too! Update: Have since moved out of state, but after storing here almost two years would definitely recommend. Jim the on-site manager is very nice and helpful. Move-out was super easy and quick - nice wide walkway and freight elevator. Didn't love how our rent got increased every few months, but we got in at such a good price I suppose I should have expected it. All around great experience though.

  • Kellie Newman

I'm very, very pleased with Extra Space Storage. I've never had to rent storage space in Chicago before but have had poor experiences in the past with other storage facilities so I was very cautious in choosing a sage, clean facility. Clark and staff are extremely helpful, accommodating, friendly and really keep an eye on things. The facility is secure and safe. It's kept very, very clean and I just get the sense my things are in a good place safe and warm which is the peace of mind I never thought I was going to have. In addition, the prices are very competitive. I would highly recommend this location to anyone looking for storage. I really couldn't ask for a better experience.

  • Bhavana Jain

I setup this storage space for a non-profit organization that I am a part of. Since I had not officially put a lock on the unit, they did make some friendly reminder calls in that regard. They were very kind and helpful. Once I made my way the storage facility, I was greeted by Dominique who helped me change some email addresses on file, print out needed receipts, and show me the locker space. She explained everything thoroughly so I could make the transition of the items to my storage unit. The interaction was professional , helpful and pleasant. Place is well lit and clean. Would highly recommend this place and the staff is great!

  • Samir Jain

My experience with Extra Space Storage was really great! The location was quite convenient to us. The process of reserving a unit, leasing and accessing the unit was all really smooth. The units have high quality doors and are easily accessible, but also secure. There's a neat freight elevator that makes things easy and usually plenty of cargo carts you can use. The process of moving out and ending the lease was equally easy - no hassle, they were very flexible and overall the experience was great! We rented for about 2.5 months during the summer. Special thanks to Jim at the front desk, he was always friendly and very helpful.

  • Daniel Seckman

Arbitrarily started charging more money each month claiming market research justified the price increase. Over 6 months, my rent increased by 44%. When I complained to the staff that I believed Extra Space were just trying to see what they could "get away with" the staff agreed with me. I paid for a full final month and left two weeks early with notice. Manager initially refused to pro-rate my final payment even though this was not mentioned in the contract or during the close-out process. I suggest looking for an alternative storage space provider. There are others that are cheaper and just as good.

  • Connie Branch

I choose this based on a friend’s recommendation. I arrived and was meeting a moving truck with 110 boxes. I didn’t know how to find my rented space, where to park, where the truck should go etc. From the moment I stepped into the office Karl was polite and very pleasant. He showed me and my movers every single thing that was needed to store my items. He went up on the freight elevator, showed me haw to use the entry code, the lock and the regular elevator. His customer service was beyond excellent. I would recommend to anyone.

  • Sandy Junge

Initially we booked our reservation online, when we came to the storage facility our unit was locked. After working with the amazing team of people at Extra Space Storage, we were able to resolve the situation quickly and efficiently. (This all happened around the 19th of September, 2020.) The assistant store manage, Chiquita James, was especially amazing. She was so gracious, kind and thoughtful with assisting us and our needs. We can not thank her enough!! The storage unit was clean and meets our needs perfectly.

  • Joseph Matz

I had furniture and different treasures for quite a long time while I was out of town and finally moved from Chicago. I ended up talking to Jim at the Greek Town facility and he was very helpful in relating information on the unit and storage building as I had not been there in some time! Overall great attitude and a good representative of your company as I had the pleasure of speaking with him a couple of different times during my move out. Appreciate all of your help Jim! 5 stars all the way!

  • Holly Carlson

I recently moved from the West Loop and had to pick up some moving supplies at this store. Jim, the manager on-site, was so friendly and helpful. I bought a couple of wardrobe boxes and was planning to walk with them back to my place but it ended up being too difficult for me to handle by myself. Jim graciously offered to carry one of the boxes and accompany me on the walk back to my building. I would highly recommend going here for any of your moving or storage needs.

  • John Palmer

Employees are competent and courteous: I had an extremely easy time booking my storage space, the manager called me several times leading up to the usage to confirm and coordinate all pertinent details, the actual transaction in store was quick and the employees kind and attentive, and the actual loading and unloading process is convenient and fairly painless. The 24 hour access to the space is also super convenient. All in all great service at an affordable rate

  • Nancy Flahaven

You couldn't ask for a more attentive store manager than Carrie. She is personable, knowledgeable and most of all, efficient. The facility is clean, well lit and easily accessible. Carrie helps step you through the whole process and is always willing to work with you to try and make the move in and move out as simple and painless as possible. It's a great location, with a committed manager on the premises and I would highly recommend it to others!

  • Diana Kulaczkowskey

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience at the 901 W Adams location. The customer service was great. I reserved a unit online, and within a few minutes, I received a phone call from Carrie. I was shocked at how quick the response time was! When I went to go see the unit and fill out the paperwork, she did a great job of giving me all the information I needed to know, and she was very thorough. Glad I decided to go with Extra Space Storage!

  • Nicole Runkle

Convenient location and easily accessible. I reserved a unit online and it was very simple. Jim called me on the phone after for more details and was very friendly. When I went to physically check out the unit, I realized it wasn't exactly what I needed, and Chiquita helped me to sign-up for a different unit that better fit my needs. She was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I would definitely recommend storing here.

  • Kaneshia Alexander

First time ever using a storage space and definitely will not be my last. Chiquita was so helpful and so awesome from the moment I walked in the door. Her smile and the way she greeted me let me know that I was in good hands. Clean facility and nice location. I would recommend anybody looking for great and friendly customer service to definitely rent here. You guys have gained another customer. Definitely satisfied.

  • Sharmilla Shiva Shakti

I came to move out and Robert the manager was there to assist and support the process. I could not have done this without his help and his expertise and finding solutions to all the issues I had during my move. Thank You Robert, your the best. Thank you extra space storage I have been with you for 2006 when it was all American storage. So much has happened and super happy you were there to help me. Thanks.

  • Skylar Mihalik

Extra Space helped me when I was in between apartments and needed to store my things for a few days. They helped me book a unit very quickly and get the best deal. Jim at the Adam’s street location in Chicago then called to make sure I had everything I needed and helped take the lock off the unit when I came into the store. I would recommend this location and extra space to anyone with storage needs!

  • Neal Fischer

I had some questions about how everything worked, and if Extra Space could be the right fit for some of my possessions. I spoke with with Jim, who couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating on the phone and made me feel at ease immediately. I only wish every store I dealt with had this kind of customer service. I was sold immediately and will not be looking elsewhere for my storage needs.

  • Justin Stuck

I have rented at a few storage places in both Chicago and the suburbs and this is by far the best one that I have used. The facilities are clean, up to date, and easy to use. Registering and getting access to my unit was a breeze. The manager Jim Cook was incredibly helpful with both of the units that I rented. This is the place to go in the West Loop for your storage needs.

  • Serena Heck

The Adams team is awesome! Carrie was super friendly, bubbly, and eager to help me put my belongings into storage for the summer. She checked out the unit with me and when she wasn't satisfied with it's cleanliness, she took it upon herself to clean it for me! How kind of her! She helped make the stressful transition of leaving school for the summer a swift and easy breeze.

  • Diana Pickard

We always appreciate our service at the Extra Space Storage on W. Adams. The store manager Jim is seriously the most helpful ever and makes the process super simple & seamless! We have multiple units at the facility and have to access our units quite frequently. The facility feels safe, clean & well kept. I would recommend getting a unit here based off our experience!

  • HeartNSole87

Extra Space Storage is awesome! The location is central and has a loading bay for easy loading and unloading! Jim is always SUPER helpful!! He answers any questions you might have and always goes above and beyond! This location also sells supplies such as tape, boxes, locks, bubble wrap, and tv covers. Everyone should consider this place for their storage needs! :)

  • Maria Harris

This place is absolutely AMAZING!! I am extremely satisfied and I am very glad that I picked extra space for my storage needs. One employee that I will always remember is Dominique, she was very helpful polite and helped me everything I needed and it was well within my budget. I rate 5 and definitely plan on recommending to family and friends when needed.

  • Kenneth Robinson

The manager at this particular location was very helpful and informative. She took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable with every decision I was making. I really enjoyed my experience with the company and would certainly recommend this particular facility to anyone who needs additional storage space. A great location and staff

  • Tina Marie Vegas

901 W Adam is the storage place to go. Please ask for Jim , he was very helpful and knowledgeable about storage. This place is clean and secure .Tell your friend and family. EXTRASPACE STORAGE. I wrote this almost a year ago and Jim is still the best and the facility is even better. Keep up the good work and please give this man Jim a rate.

  • Kelly Birdsell

I can’t say enough! The staff has been more than helpful from not only making sure I was able to lock in great pricing but making it easy to switch units when my situation changed, even offering to help me move my stuff! The auto-renew and billing has been super easy as well. The facility is clean and I feel safe! Definitely recommend!

  • Emily Blanquera

I work with a nonprofit that has two storage spaces at this Extra Space— and what a dream! It’s so fun to be here, convenient, secure, and straightforward. Jim is very helpful. The floors are so smooth so the carts roll really well, which makes it easy to move everything we need (which can be a lot!). Consider storing your stuff here!

  • Daniella DeSilva

The manager Carrie was very helpful and knowledgable. She went above & beyond to help me in a number of ways, all of which were very much appreciated! The facility itself is a bit "historic" :) but it is clean, with everything in good working order and it is in a great location. Only good things to say so far!

  • Alana De Leon

Great location, clean and easily accessible facility, the staff (Jim) was very friendly and helpful. I am happy we made the move to this space. Sign-up and move-in was simple and quick. Price is very fair and much lower than other storage places in the area! Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

  • Beka Israel

I absolutely would recommend this place. From the time that I reserved my storage locker I received a call from Jim he was so kind he answered all of my questions and made this so easy.

  • Marcus T.

Jim the site manager was an amazing help with my rental! He made the whole process super simple and was very easy to work with a very friendly as well. The storage space was clean and easy to access.

  • Adriana Shilton

I've rented from Extra Space since 2013 and it's been a great service. Had a recent situation of downsizing units and everyone was very helpful - the manager Vincent, Tony, and especially Neenah who saved the day! The location is also easy to get to, and there's onsite parking. Would recommend!

  • Osuagwu

I just moved to Chicago by myself so I had a lot of stuff with me. Karl helped me check in and helped me put my stuff all into the top storage. Karl answered any questions and had and was sooo helpful, I couldn’t have done it without his help. I highly recommend him and this storage location!

  • Tammy Owins

Easy to rent for our seasonal business. Rob the manager was very helpful and went out of his way to help me get set up for my seasonal rental needs. He also helped our ORG as a good neighbor with a weekly event at the Park across the street. Great City location, safe with easy load access.

  • Merin Mathew

Carl helped me get my storage unit at the Extra space facility in Adams Street. It was a simple process and he explained everything thoroughly. Facility is clean and there is a freight elevator available to access the units. Would definitely recommend this storage space!

Jim who manages the 901 W Adams location was helpful. I ended up using another Extra Space location due to availability. The fact that Jim was able to advise what's best for the customer and helped me transfer - I really appreciated and thought to broadcast to others.

  • Syahirah Mansor

Deleted my original review. Although I had a great onboarding experience I received a notice raising the cost of my rental 50% after only 4 months. I will be cancelling the contract if unresolved, it feels like a bait and switch.
