I lived at (3) locations that ELLICOTT currently owns. 24 S johnson, 192 Seneca Street and 960…read moreBusti. I stayed with ELLICOTT due to their pet policy. The communication between ELLICOTT- Specifically the Leasing Manager Elizabeth Kubiak and I was horrible to say the least. @ 24 S Johnson I got a knock on my door from someone who works with the building asking me if I saw any "bugs" I said no, should I be looking out for something specific? She said no, you're fine and left. Exactly a month later I was absolutely infested with cockroaches and left my lease. Had I known this woman came to me about cockroaches I would have taken the preventative measures needed. At 192 Seneca there was ongoing construction on the 2nd floor. I had a geriatric dog at the time. There was a potent chemical used one weekend that made it hard for me to breath/sleep pretty much anything. I called ELLICOTT and they explained they sent out an email. I never got this email. Key fob stopped working/elevator. I begged the leasing manager Elizabeth Kubiak to allow me to break my lease and move to another location, 960 busti. She accommodated me by covering the cost of movers since I had paid to move into 192 with movers just a month prior. Once I moved into 960, ellicott tried to bill me for that movers fee which was given to me due to incidents at 192 for 2/3 years I lived at 960. They finally removed that charge. April of 2024 roofing was being handled. I lived on the third floor. On a very rainy night my ceiling leaked all night. I sent 2 work orders within a weeks period and got no return communication. When I finally planned to leave ELLICOTT this past october I was told my deposit would come in the mail with the receipt. I was not given my full receipt and they kept $822 of my deposit. When I asked for clarification, Elizabeth sent the missing half of my receipt where that $822 charge was placed after leaving my first apartment. Why was I hearing about this charge now? Why wasn't I asked to pay that total or given the opportunity to dispute it upon leaving? It wasn't even itemized. NO PHOTOS. Nothing. When I continued to correspond with Elizabeth she stopped answering me on a tuesday and then went on vacation for another week that friday. When I asked again for clarification since she had been avoiding me she then ghosted me. Ive called in with no return call. My deposit was taken from me arbitrarily. I am a single woman who pays her own bills. No one should have to deal with this and then be ghosted by another working professional with zero clarity. I would not recommend living at any of their locations. Get an ESA for your pet and live somewhere else.

The Ellicott Square Building is located in downtown Buffalo and is bea-u-ti-ful. It was completed…read morein 1896 so you know, it's OLD. But with old buildings comes great, historic, intricate architecture. All ten floors of it! When I am in the Ellicott Square Building for work, I feel like I am in James Cameron's Titanic with the beautiful staircases on either side of the main floor with the glass roof... It's all so wonderful. There is even Charlie the Butcher and Joe's Panini for food options as well as a chiropractor and small shops on the ground floor. Unfortunately there aren't many offices that inhabit the building as there once were but hopefully it will continue to serve as an office building for years to come.

This is a corporation. They want your money and they will get it. I never missed rent, never caused problems, never complained when they took months to come fix anything, or when they trapped mice in my apartment with me and refused to fix it, and yet they're still refusing to give me my security deposit 2 months after I've moved out. They will try anything to take your money, and will do anything to do as little work as possible. If you can avoid living here, do it. You will never be able to get ahold of anyone but maintanence, and the chances of anyone else contacting you back are slim to none.

It took weeks of emails to get the company to make up for their mistake. As result I lost trust and confidence in their ability and desire to run an ethical organization and I terminated my relationship with them. In addition Ashley Barlow and Chris Wietig of Standard Property Management have delayed returning the keys to the apartment. At this writing it has been nearly 6 weeks since I have asked for the return of the keys but they have not been received. They're said the keys were sent out but won't provide a tracking number or any estimate on what day the keys might be received. They have also not refunded cash remaining in my account. Avoid them. In my opinion they are not trustworthy or competent

5 things that makes this place worth 5 star!…read more 1) Layout/Plan : On the website you could see the details from price to layout as it needs a whole website to discuss about. The 2 story and private entrance gives a feel of townhouse. The apartments are new, spacious, have a open layout and brightness to them. Gym and pool are not that great but you have something better than nothing. Have a laundry room inside the apartment and i love that with kids. Clubhouse is free once a year to use for party and its good to know. These are the best of their all 4 types of apartments offered. If you live on ground floor , you will hear the footsteps on the floor above a lot. But with kids i prefer to take the pain by renting on the ground floor than to take the stress of how the people below us are really annoyed if we are not lucky. 2) Location: Right on transit, across from Wegmans, neighbor to Kohls and what not. You name it, its there within its reach but never had any disturbance of the trucks or noise. Great expensive houses in the neighborhood. 3) School: Country parkway elementary, Transit Middle, East high. One of the best schools you can get. All in closest proximity. 4) Family: Lots of kids and they use all the lawn area as a backyard. People are so used to all this that it becomes a part of their life. Great neighborhood with a great mix. 5) Safety: Overall the best you can ask for.
