This service was a life-saver as needed to leave a big suitcase for the day so I could go to work. It 's open 24h so I dropped it off at 4:30am and the staff were very friendly and flexible about when I needed to pick it up as I hadn't have an exact time. I will be using them again for sure.

The place where I stored my luggage was secluded and I reached it easily thanks to Google Maps.
Translated - Karen
Overall good option - was surprised by distance from the terminal since I was using for airport storage and when compared against the onsite Excess Baggage option this was about half the price, but I did spend some cash to catch a taxi to store my items, so it did not end up being quite as cost effective as I was hoping.
