We went in to try and rent a washer and dryer, we were met at the door and ask wha we wanted, it felt like the were hesitant to let us in. We had been in a few days earlier and the nice younger guy had looked up some units for us and said they had a couple to choose from that he could get, so we came back a few days later and the older gentleman said he didn’t have anything and we would have to leave our number and his guys would look around. They never called us back and we felt like we weren’t important enough and they didn’t really want to help Us, we went elsewhere and got treated like a customer should and bought there instead. It’s a shame.
