I CONTRACTED HANTAVIRUS DUE TO RODENT-INFESTATION
HORRIBLE…read moreCOMPANY. A BA-JILLION ZERO STARS.
I CONTRACTED HANTAVIRUS AND GOT GRAVELY ILL because rodent-droppings, rodent-pee, dead rodents filled my unit. Their failure to control a facility-wide pest outbreak and allowing a colony of rodents to freely roam the rafters constitutes facility-level negligence and unlawful.
Management ignored me and NEVER CONTACTED ME. TREATS ME LIKE GARBAGE. 15.5 YEARS OF PAYING OTAY MESA SELF STORAGE OVER $20,000, AND STILL HARASS ME FOR MONEY. VERY ALARMING THAT MANAGEMENT HAS LIES IN ITS COMPUTER ABOUT CONTACTING ME. ALL LIES. MY PHONE REGISTERS ALL CALLS. NO CALLS FROM OTAY MESA SELF STORAGE AT ALL. NONRESPONSIVE TO ALL MY EMAILS. JUST CONSTANT EMAILS THREATENING ME FOR PAYMENT OR LIEN ON ME. NOT ONE TIME HAS MANAGEMENT CALLED TO DISCUSS/APOLOGIZE TO ME FOR ALL MY PROPERTY-LOSS. I HAVE REQUESTED MULTIPLE TIMES TO OTAY MESA SELF STORAGE TO SEND ME THEIR INSURANCE CLAIM FORM. NO RESPONSE.
I CERTIFY THAT OTAY MESA SELF STORAGE MANAGEMENT HAS NEVER ENGAGED WITH ME TO FOLLOW UP ON ALL MY PROPERTY-LOSS BUT CONTINUES TO HARASS ME FOR PAYMENTS AND NOW HAS PUT LIEN. BRAZEN MESSAGE TO ME THAT OTAY MESA SELF STORAGE DOES NOT VALUE MY 15.5 YEARS OF LINING THEIR POCKETS. have paid Otay Mesa Storage from 2/19/2011, over $20,000. Now I have NOTHING TO SHOW BECAUSE OF FACILITY-WIDE RODENT-INFESTATION. ALL PROPERTY DESTROYED.

* Strict Fees and Policies: Complaints highlight aggressive fee enforcement, such as steep charges ($200+) for leaving trash behind or late departures ($250), combined with restricted access to trash disposal bins.
* Steep Ramps and Maintenance: Customers note that older sections of certain local facilities feature rundown infrastructure, steep inclines, and locked waste receptacles. Locked or non-existent trash bins, forcing renters to haul garbage across steep inclines.
* Steep Rate Hikes: Sudden and significant monthly rent increases after initial promotional periods or long-term rentals have frustrated departing customers.
