Well yes,
containing antimatter in an electronic matter vessel is more difficult than containing electronic matter in that vessel, which is why you need fields here in the first place! The actual physics of levitation isn't any different though. Neither gravity nor electromagnetism work differently on antimatter, so the attraction between neutral matter and antimatter is just gravity, and the electromagnetic force is stronger.
Which might mean solid storage is better, but as you say it is trivial to freeze stuff.
