    I've been with Hunter for 3 years now, we are not staying another year because of their manager…read moreBrittney lying to my face, I have a problem in the apartment reported via email over a month now, next day I went personally and they didn't know there was an email that somehow was overlooked, I went back yesterday because without fixing the issue I had before, somehow went to fix something that wasn't reported or looked by maintenance at any point and now we had a second issue for 3 days that they fixed already thank God, and she told me 6 different stories, just lie after lie, first said that my daughter sent her an email asking for that and she is reading the email, I called my daughter and said no, I told her that they haven't fixed the problem and created a second one, when I confronted her, she said somehow she learned about this, after a while she said I remember it was the previous tenants, we've been there 3 years, oh oh my bad, one of you called by phone, none of us did, it was maintenance when they went to check, never happened, so gets mad, cross her arms and said how do you want to proceed then, she is not professional, to address an issue lies to your face to try to see if go for it, I told her that im paying to have good conditions and she said, you should see my apartment's conditions, I don't care if she likes to live in the trash, I don't want to live like that. Just to make sure this is understood, I lived 2 years with Axiom echo park apartment, in those 2 years I had both heat went out in winter time and A/C went off in July, the lady in the office, Brittney as well, answered every time and actually seemed she cared, maintenance was there always within minutes to an hour and both times a part was broken, had to order it and then fix it, but, both times they took care of the issue by bringing heaters to my unit, 5 of them and I a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment, with Hunter is 3/3, and in the summer they showed up with air units and fans, not great, but at least I wasn't left to die like the Hunter lady has me here, not caring, if I was her boss, I would give her 1 chance to actually get her act together if that is not happening she should be fired.

    Worst living experience EVER, expect to never get anything close to your full security deposit back…read morebecause they need to use that $$$ to pay all the fines they are receiving from the city, etc. The building I was in was structurally unsound so they took out all the balconies for construction and there was no access to my unit for months and months when they said it would just be a "week or so". They never sent any updates or had any communication to the construction process and I was the one who always had to reach out and even then they could never give me a solid answer on when things would be completed. There were so many problems with this place it's remarkable how they are even still in business. My thoughts and prayers go out to whoever is still living in these properties....

    Friends invited us for the NIU football game down in DeKalb! It was a gorgeous day and we had great…read moreseats, right on the 50 yard line! The stadium was about 50% filled when we got there! By the start of the game, it was 90% full! The people sitting next to us were very friendly and we had a fabulous time!

    I transferred in so I only take classes at Barsema Hall. If you are looking to have professors who…read morespeak fluent English, do not take up a Finance or Business degree at NIU. Positives: Professor Doughty speaks fluent English and is a great professor. He teaches Business and has actually ran and sold his own highly successful business. I have learned more about public speaking and people skills in his class than my actual public speaking classes. Professor Benning speaks fluent English and is a great professor. He is enthusiastic and knows how to encourage class participation without making it feel forced. Highly engaging teaching style. Professor Kuhn is pretty funny and brings in some cool guest speakers. Field trips. The school goes up to Chicago for field trips, it's pretty nice. Bloomberg Terminal access. The school has access to the Bloomberg Terminal and opens up access to students which is pretty cool since otherwise I would have to pay about $32,000 per year for one of my own. There are a few impressive alumni (Robert Zemeckis, Dennis Barsema, The Nostalgia Critic, a handful of athletes and state legislators). The Huskies are also actually pretty good at football. Negatives: About half of the Finance/Business professors speak very poor English, and because most of the classes involve numbers, you're on your own. You will need a Chegg subscription. Main road to get to the campus has been blocked off for over a year now. Crime. Muggings, shootings, and rape. The closest gas station has a thick wall of bulletproof glass in front of the cash register. I don't want to act like it's as bad as Rockford or Chicago or something because nobody has given me any trouble but just be warned. Your typical DEI crap. Tampons in the men's bathroom. All College of Business students are forced to attend at least one DEI event before graduating. Here's an example of the title of one of these such events: "Conversations of the Heart: Valentine's Day Queered". Parents - keep in mind this is the kind of thing you're paying $30,000/year for. You are not guaranteed a decent job after all the money you pay. I'd say NIU sucks, but all of this stuff is unfortunately par for the course for higher education in the US at the moment.

    This place is disgusting. There is garbagw everywhere, broken windows, boarded up windows, and…read morethe smell is vile. Air conditioning units smell like there is a dead rodent coming from it. This place will charge you to clean in. Broken appliances . A cabinet fell off . Truly disgusting. Do not move here . Their carpets are stained . They don't fix or replace anything. Run.

    Seemingly good value. Some issues incurred point to poor…read moremanagement & maintenance. Physical inspection upon moving all appeared good. 1) Air unit issue 2) multiple outlets not working; 1/2 of them actually. 3) window wouldn't close. The AC and electrical were resolved second trip, nothing was done first trip besides call me and close work ticket. Window I wanted closed; although nonsmoking property neighbors smoke outside and smoke was coming in. Management wanted multiple times to explain replacement, accessing issue prior to repair. I wanted window closed it was making apartment smell of smoke and closing it was all I asked about. Clearly broken it needs repair-that's their issue closing window now the problem. I feel living here will be peaceful and serene. I've rented at multiple complexes in 90's and early 2000's never ever did property manger fail to get apartment ready for move in by checking electrical and functional items. Seems here give it to you in need of repair and then argue about repairing is protocol for Hailey. Open windows with staff prior to signing and check all outlets. My neighbor said he also had 2 inoperable outlets since moving in. They need to set their standards higher. If they don't respect their property the property won't be respected and that's how bad living standards begin. Looking forward to better experiences moving forward. Over other large owners, this is quite less traffic . New management allegedly, seems at least one was trained on the old protocol , other than one loud unprofessional manger , staff in office are pleasant and informative.
