What the three facilities offer
All three locations list covered, indoor, outdoor and boat storage, so you are not locked into one format. Indoor bays keep sun and hail off the paint and cut down on UV damage to tires and trim. Covered gives you a roof without four walls. Outdoor is the cheapest way to keep a rig on pavement, and it works fine if you are not storing through the worst of the salt months. Every one of the three is gated and lit, and two of them list cameras. All three offer 24/7 gate access, which matters if you tow out early or roll back in after dark. Ask about gate hours anyway before you sign, since access rules can change with staffing.
Reading the ratings
The top three facilities here are all Public Storage, rated 4.9, 4.9 and 4.7, with 850, 354 and 293 reviews respectively. That is a lot of feedback for a suburb, and the spread between them is small. A 4.7 with nearly 300 reviews is not a warning sign; it is a normal facility with normal complaints. Read the recent reviews rather than the overall number. Look for comments about gate codes working, snow being cleared, and whether the aisles stay wide enough to swing a trailer. Those details tell you more about day to day life than the star average does.
Practical notes before you sign
Walk the site at the hour you will actually use it. If you leave at 5 a.m. for a trip, check that the gate and lighting work then. Confirm your RV or boat fits the bay before you commit, and measure height, not just length. For anything sitting more than a month, a battery maintainer saves you a jump start, and a cover or indoor bay protects against sun and hail. If you store through an Illinois winter, winterize the water systems and check your insurance covers the vehicle at a storage address, not just at home. The facilities near Palatine also serve the surrounding northwest suburbs, so availability can tighten in spring.
