I lived in the Hammocks Apartments for a total of 4 years. Please read my whole review before you sign a lease there so you know exactly what you are about to get yourself into. The Hammocks is a beautiful complex. The complex is very quiet and safe to walk around. It's close to Chestnut Ridge Park and has many other great amenities within the area. The 5 Corner intersection will take you about 6-8 minutes to go through it, so plan on being patient every time you leave or return to the complex. The walls in the apartments are thin so you can hear other people if they are loud. I was fortunate and had a old guy that lived below me. The Manager that runs the place, JEN is soooooo RUDE and unprofessional. She has treated me and my fiancé like crap the whole time that I have lived there. Don't bother saying hi or anything because she probably won't even turn around or give you the time of day. A pleasant smile and hello would have been nice just once while living there. One example of many: I was sitting in front of the fireplace on one of the coldest winter days. She shut the fireplace off and left the office(rude) . The Maintenance guy, LENNY is just as bad. When he comes in he doesn't take his shoes off or put on booty covers. Lenny has put a big orange sticker on my window because I was parked in front of my neighbor's garage while I ran up to my apartment to grab something quick that I forgot. My neighbor wasn't even in town at the time I parked in front of his garage for 5 minutes. He has tried to get one of my vehicles towed because my registration was past due and has falsely accused me of many other things. I understand that they have rules and are running a business. I totally agree with that, it's just the way Jen and Lenny treat you that is unacceptable. They are just so rude and unprofessional to you it's a definite guarantee to make you upset by the time you want to get the heck out of there and leave. I got $420 back from my security deposit out of $900 and I lived there for 4 years. I was considered one of their best tenants. I never complained or called the office for a lot of things. I'm a very clean person and did not destroy anything in the apartment. Lenny does the final inspection and will charge you for anything he can find. I even got charged for grout that was cracked for my counter (normal wear and tear over a 4 year time span that should have been taken care of by maintenance to begin with) and dirt in the crack of my microwave. There is a total of 44 different ways why you won't get all your security deposit back. The total dollar amount for all 44 charges is $2262. I feel pretty lucky that I was able to live in the Hammocks enjoying the beauty of the property until I could save up enough money to buy a house. I'm very glad I will never have to deal with such an unprofessional staff again. Don't get me wrong, I think the Hammocks is one of the nicest apartment complexes to live in, in WNY, it's just too bad they can't hire pleasant people to be running the place. The Hammocks has a nice country feel to it and you are living in orchard park. The owners need to remove Jen and Lenny from the complex period. They don't know how to treat resident's or deal with the public on a professional level. I hope the owner of the complex reads this review and takes it seriously and will take appropriate action. They put too much of their time and money into the place. It's a beautiful place to live. read more
