|Recommended: NoI recently had a disappointing experience with Eliot on 4th apartment complex due to their poor communication practices regarding my application status. Despite requesting written notice of my application denial multiple times, I never received any explanation or documentation regarding the grounds for their decision. Additionally, I was not provided with any third-party documents that influenced their decision, which is concerning. To make matters worse, my applicant portal was suddenly removed without any explanation. This lack of transparency and suspicious activity is unacceptable, especially considering it is their legal obligation to provide written notice to applicants regarding their status. Overall, my experience with Eliot on 4th was extremely frustrating and concerning.

|Recommended: NoI am writing to enthusiastically appreciate post for Chris from Eliot on 4th Apartments for his outstanding role as a maintenance professional. If you are not paying attention, you will miss him. He is very quiet and non-assuming. However, he is proud of the work he does. I was worried that our old maintenance man was leaving for another building, and we had to start all over with a “new guy”. That wasn’t the case with Chris. The last 30-45 days I have had more than my normal share of work requests and he comes each time as it was my first call. I can confidently affirm his exceptional dedication to getting the job done.
The problem might not be a quick fix he might have to follow up several times however, I don’t have to ask him when are you coming back, or when will it get fixed. He will always say, I need to run this by my team, and we will get back to you with a resolution and a date to fix it. I have never seen him around our building, and he isn’t picking something up off the f

|Recommended: NoServices drastically changed last year — I have been living here for 2.5 years and the services, administration, and maintenance have changed negatively drastically the last year. Security also has been affected. I have contacted the management office with no response. I used to love the place but not anymore.

|Recommended: YesQuite — It’s been quiet and an easy move in so far. Only issue I had was no one explained moving in when we got there. Has to visit the desk to ask questions about how certain things worked.

|Recommended: NoCrime, overcharges and rent increases, oh my — I've lived at the Eliot for over two years. The property is pretty nice, clean, has a good workout room areas and the concierge and maintenance staff are really nice and helpful. I don't know the new sales staff, it has been a revolving door here and the person that helped me when I moved in has left the company.
The crime in this part of town has never been low, but in the last two years I have seen it rise, especially in and around this building. People have been assaulted behind the building at the duck pond more than once , at least one car jacking in front of the building, an assault in the lobby, a mugging in the walkway area between the church across the street and the new building, and a crime happening almost daily at the Safeway or the CVS across the street . 99 of the time, the Eliot Management staff do not inform the residents what has happened - almost all of the incidents I mentioned I had to find on reddit or the local news.
In 2 years, I have been overcharged around 1,500.00 for HVAC, water and sewer, thanks to the inept third party billing company, ConService. In a 2 month period, I was overcharged almost 1,0000 in water and sewer. I reported the insane charges immediately and upon a maintenance inspection, there was no leak in my apartment. Eventually a loose wire on my water meter which is in a locked closet that only maintenance can access was part of the issue. While I waited 2 months for billing resolution, I still had to pay the overage. Currently, tenants are waiting for a resolution to an unknown HVAC issue. After a couple of months, Management finally told us some very vague information. The issue still is not resolved. I am not the only tenant with these issues, it is a building wide problem. Some tenants had even greater charges that I had. When I moved in, it was not explained that not only do tenants have to pay ConService for electric, you must pay Pepco for electric.
After 2 years, my rent was raised 20 . I get that newer buildings in DC can raise the rent as much as they want, but 20 of my rent equals over 500 a month, which is just too much to pay when combined with the crime and utility bill issues -for a one bedroom one bath with a den.
I have found another building in DC where I can get a 2 bedroom, 2 bath with an additional 400 square feet for the price the Eliot was going to raise my rent to. The new building is still super close to a metro station, several grocery stores and numerous places to eat. It also is a 24 hour concierge building with a pool, workout room and this one has a dog park. The building is also in a lower crime area, which, as a single woman is very important.
They can give out popcorn and twinkies in the lobby and call it customer appreciation, but when all is said and done, I am just a number, and I've had enough.

|Recommended: NoTerribly annoyed with management staff. — I have been waiting since February 10 for my kitchen to be repaired. It is now March 1.

|Recommended: NoPoor customer Maintenance services — I have been here for a month and regret it. My unit was missing a kitchen furniture and I was told to buy it from IKEA.
The shower door bottom seal is poor, which causes a pool of water on the bathroom floor from showering.
After 3 weeks of no resolution, I was told it’s the unit design. Basically, deal with it.
Definitely not worth the money and I’m getting a lawyer to get out of this lease. Worst place I have lived

|Recommended: YesThank you William for being such a big help — It is my hope and sincere desire that this personal letter of appreciate and thanks to Mr. Wiliam will convey how much his professionalism, kindness and consistent support is valued and how it has allowed me to feel right at home even before I became a resident of this wonderful and Historic building, which I now call home. It is also my humble wish that this letter of appreciation may serve in some way to facilitate Mr. William being recognized officially not only as a valued professional employee but a very caring, kind and well-mannered human being, the type of person whom we all know today's World is in short supply.
From day one, Mr. William's support has been essential in aiding me while I was completing my application and in various other matters as well. He has always been very cordial and pleasant during chance encounters in the hallway. He has been especially kind and courteous when I needed reminding that my bills were due, helping me to avoid potentially costly late fees. Mr. Williiam's trade-mark kindness and professional courtesy has not been just a rare occurrence with me and my interactions with him, but his unbiased and personal concern for ones' well-being is evident to all who have been fortunate enough to have him there, whether it was to ask a simple question or for clarification on a confusing and detailed procedure. I for one, cannot imagine what I would do without his assistance and gentle reminders.
Hello Carlton,
Thank you for your wonderful comments. I will share with our team. We are so happy to have William here at Eliot on 4th. We are glad he has been able to assist you in making Eliot on 4th feel like home. We look forward to your continued residency.
Sincerely,
Shawn, Community Manager
