They took money out of my account without me signing a contract or even getting a key or a storage unit number, I was assured by an Elsa that I would not be charge at all until I went in and signed the contract and the first month would start in June at the 29.99 first month special not only did I not sign the contract but they charged me full price $151 not even what Elsa told me over the phone but again I shouldn't get charged until I signed the contract. 

Business response:

Dear Aurelia, We apologize for any inconvenience you encountered. In order to assist you properly, we ask that you promptly contact our staff regarding this matter.

they have a "serious f***ing rat infestation" and they "refuse" to fix it! our valuables were damaged(the f***ing rats chewed up our stuff & left a s***load of rat droppings) and had to be thrown away! they "still" refused to fix the "f***ing" rat infestation! to make things "even f***ing worse, their rent keeps going up!" don't use them: their facility is a "biohazard" & a threat to public health & safety! the health department should make them close down their facility! it's "that" bad: the storage rooms are underground &... read more

TL;DR -- Flooding, rodents, slow elevators, unresponsive management. I give two stars because they do in fact offer secure storage spaces... the minimum expectation. But there are definitely problems. For example, apparently the facility had a flood last winter. I discovered this in the spring when I went in to dig up some of my stuff and found water-damaged items. I went to the office, where they claimed that they had notified customers by both mail and email about the flood. However, I never received either one. The man... read more

Business response:

Dear Michael, We're incredibly sorry to hear about your experience at All American Self Storage. We do have a pest control vendor service our facility each month, however, in most situations we are unable to find damage inside occupied units until the tenant visits their space. At our facility, we prohibit the storage of food items, perishables, uncleaned appliances, etc., which are the most common causes of pests, and it's likely that a neighboring tenant had stored something of this nature. You did mention that the City o... read more

Buyer beware. I went to put some items into my storage to find out there was a flood 24 hours earlier. Management does not notify you if there's a flood I was told there be an email going out five days later and I still haven't been notified that there was a flood. Some of my items were damaged with water. But here's the kicker after reading the the protection plan that I pay $11 a month for, it does not cover any type of flooding. What a scam. I was told that over half the units in the storage were flooded due to an accid... read more

Business response:

Dear Jason, We are sorry to hear that your unit was affected by the water issue we experienced last week. Just as you stated, the water leak was due to a pipe that was damaged during work done by the city of San Diego. The manager provided you with the Tenant Protection Plan forms and asked you to return them to him whenever you have them ready so we can submit it to our TPP carrier. We want to assist you with the claim process. Please stop by or give us a call at 619-287-5300 during normal office hours and we will be happy... read more

I wish I could select 0 stars. After using this storage unit for 1 year with relatively no problems I thought I would use them again for the 2020 summer. I was extremely disappointed when I found that my stuff was water damaged and infested with rat feces when it was time to take out my stuff. I filed a claim with them and still haven't heard back about my claim more than A YEAR LATER. I was in contact with Tim who was not helpful at all as his emails reminded me that my claim would take 4-6 weeks to process, however, once t... read more

Business response:

Dear Anna, We apologize for any delay in communication in regards to any damages found in your storage unit. Please call our customer service hotline during business hours at 949-346-4190 and a member of our team can investigate the status of your claim. Regards, Management

I highly DO NOT recommend All American Self Storage. The customer service I received as a new customer was absolutely terrible. The website and advertisements say "use one of our free move-in trucks", yet this was a horrible experience for me. I needed the truck at the end of June to move into the storage unit. I was given a the same exact reworded answers numerous times to deflect me actually receiving a move out truck. Week after week, I was told I would be put on the waiting list. I was told they will ask the manager a... read more

Business response:

Dear Joseph, We are sorry to hear that your experience at All American Self Storage was not to your expectations. Our records show that you inquired about the truck on the morning of 7/31/20 which is also the day you vacated your space. We require advance notice for truck reservations to ensure we have adequate staffing on the day you wish to rent it. In regards to your unit, our staff transferred you to another unit that was more easily accessible and larger than your previous unit. We also provided you with a discount for ... read more

Beware, they will raise your rent 1-2 x a year, if anything gets damaged even if it is their fault they won't cover unless you pay for insurance. They are definitely mostly concerned about the $$$ not caring for your things. 

Business response:

Dear Daniel, We are sorry to hear about your experience at All American Self Storage. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate your information in our database. Please call the office at 619-287-5300 and we would be happy to assist you with your concerns. Regards, Management

This is a storage facility caters to the homeless they camp out every night and during the day if you want your things stolen go ahead and store your stuff here the owner obviously does not care or about the neighborhood 

Business response:

Dear K.K., We appreciate your feedback! At All American Self Storage, we strive to provide outstanding customer service and storage solutions to all of our tenants regardless of their living situation. As you may be aware, our property is not open to the public, and only paying tenants are allowed to enter our facility by using their personalized access codes. This allows us to record and keep track of anyone who enters or exits the property and adds an extra layer of security for our tenants and their belongings. We were u... read more

For many, many months, the access gate to the storage units had been broken and left open during business hours. Unfortunately, this had allowed homeless and others to wander and has also led to increased trash and associated smells. Yesterday, I spoke directly with the manager who gave me mostly lip service about needing corporate approval (after some 3-4 months) before the gates can be repaired and assured me that no one wanders around as they monitor cameras. For what it's worth, cameras are to the back of the emplo... read more

Business response:

Dear Scott, We appreciate your feedback. One of the gates to access the property is currently under repair due to an unexpected incident and we are trying to solve this as quickly as possible. Since our office sits atop the main entrance, we are able to see who enters our property by looking through our large floor-to-ceiling windows, or by viewing our cameras on both floors. It should also be noted that our cameras are backed up via DVR, so we are able to review footage if there is any cause for concern. The staff have be... read more
