  • Intrusive and Rude Management, Currently Has Flood Damage.

    September 3, 2024
    I lived there for about a year and every day out of that apartment is like a breath of fresh air. I’ve had multiple neighbors had multiple car break ins (including myself), and the apartment was semi-recently flooded. The amenities are poor. Management is passive aggressive and WILL text you, not email! Look elsewhere!
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Not an ideal experience

    September 12, 2023
    Wanted to share my experience for any prospective renters at The Ellis. I had a 'bait and switch' experience where I was shown an empty unit twice. I paid the application fee, was approved right away and then didn't hear from the leasing contact for two days when she mentioned the unit was renewed by a prior tenant. This was disappointing and felt disingenuous and unprofessional. I wouldn't have applied if I knew the unit wasn't available. As you look at units, please be sure there isn't a bait ...
    and switch situation happening.

    It’s refreshing when you have a responsive and active office to address concerns. I moved in this month and so far everything has been smooth, easy, and transparent.
