I lived at Bromley Hall my freshman and sophomore years. Made some great friends, many of which I…read morestill hangout with... I'm not sure where Chella G. was really staying, but the food at Bromley was (is?) much better than she describes. And, the cafeteria is open at least 3 hours for each meal (I just checked their website). Funny she also mentions the elevators. LOL! Those are some good stories :-) It sure was excellent to have weekly (or was it every other week?) maid service. The private bathrooms made the decision easy for me, did't have to share the shower with the entire floor!

I have had nothing but a great time here. It is in a perfect location (especially for freshman),…read morethe rooms are 3 times as big as any other public dorm, and the people here have been awesome. Specifically, my RA and Head RA, Anthony Montalto and D Akisanya. They have both been so inviting and enjoyable to be around. They helped me acclimate to UIUC as a freshman and gave great advice from their time here. Couldn't ask for better staffing. Overall, amazing experience I highly recommend.

Love it so much! Once I toured during IlliniFest I knew…read moreIllini Tower was home. Floor 15 is my favorite and we have the sweetest RA. The dining hall is wonderful, and I love the fact that we have a kitchen and are able to make our own meals. The staff is wonderful and always kind!

Lived here for two years while I finished my degree, and it was the best leasing experience I have…read morehad in my decade of renting. I used to work for a larger student housing company on campus, and the level of care, respect, and attentiveness given to tenants at Electrum is night and day compared to the other options on/around campus. The very few issues I did encounter over the two years I lived in my unit were always instantly addressed. I typically heard back from any emails I'd send in a matter of hours, and would come home from work the next day to find the problem completely resolved. They were very careful and accommodating to me as a pet owner as well, making sure my cat did not escape outside whenever work was done. You receive very clear and concise policies in the lease, and the move-out guide was equally as easy to follow. Unlike larger companies, I was not nickel and dimed on the security deposit and actually received all of it back. I highly recommend leasing with Electrum Group! Fairly priced rent, easy renewal process, good maintenance, and excellent communication.

The apartment is a an…read moreawesome find (nice bathrooms, newer appliances, homey feel, right next to a bus stop) and Weiss / Electrum Group is the best landlord I've ever had. He was always very responsive, fixed any issues we had quickly, and gave us an amazing rate on the apartment. He also gave us our full security deposit back! It's great for students at University of Illinois (all of my classes were a 10 minute bus ride away). You can also experience downtown Champaign which is about a 5 minute walk away. Lease from Electrum Group if you get the chance!

I had a great experience here a few years ago. The rooms are more expensive than standard…read moreuniversity housing, but if you can afford it... the space is worth it. As a freshman and sophomore, this is a great place to meet other students and make friends. You get to know everyone really well -- I made a lot of close friends here that I hang out with even today. The office also helps organize events, so even if you're shy, you'll still get a chance to meet other people.

Alien Hall was the best thing I could've asked for as a freshman at U of I…read more Lots of GDI's (goddamn independents), a decent dining hall (clean and comfy - booths - very restauranty) and close to Paradiso and That's Rentertainment. I spent many a night outside with fellow porch rats. Discussing, smoking, listening, smoking and smoking some more. The people I met within the first two weeks at Allen remained my core group of friends throughout college (and beyond). I can't believe I had this place down as my third choice. (the six pack was closer to the art building). I don't know where or how I would've ended up without Allen.

JSM has so far been the best apartment company I have lived in! Compared to others on campus, they…read moreare professional, organized, and friendly. The prices are fair and the staff is nice. I lived in JSM my senior year at UIUC and it was my best experience at an apartment and then went to another company for a year but HAD to go back to JSM after that (this year). I currently live with my partner who is a UIUC student and I am a young professional, and JSM certainly caters to both of us! I never thought I would be working full time from home when I signed this lease but believe me I am VERY glad I signed with JSM when that became our reality. I love the gym and VIP card. The maintenance is also always efficient and I've never had any issues! I also have an emotional support animal which JSM was very easy and nice to work with in regards to accommodating this need.

Awful awful company. The buildings are not secure, one apartment would freeze on the inside during…read morethe winter and did not have heat, a car was stolen from the parking lot in front of their building (no cameras). They would ignore emails and dodge phone calls, take forever to deal with maintenance, and were flat out rude and deceitful and will do ANYTHING to charge you extra. Even lying about not receiving your keys once you've returned them. Thankfully they have cameras in their office at least so we could prove the keys were returned. I would give zero stars if I could. Pathetic company with crap workers and terrible buildings.

Yelp keeps demanding that I review this place, apparently because I happened to Google search it…read more You ever get that paranoid feeling that Mother Google is watching your every move and feeding it out to just EVERYBODY? But what Yelp wants, Yelp will get. I will post a review of the place. Uni dorms there are hell holes. Like prison cells, inhabited by creatures less civilized than zoo animals. Hendrick House is a respite from that. Comfortable rooms, carpeted floors, semi-private shared bath rooms, higher class inhabitants and the best food on campus. How do I know? I actually lived there as a freshman 58 years ago. I knew the Hendricks. The place may have changed, so take that into consideration.

Legit, they just want to steal our money. Also know that there are a few people living there for free and that an employee was seen on camera to look through a student's backpack and after realizing there was no money in it, returned it to the student like they didn't look through it. Entire company is shady. I'm upset. Why am I getting a letter for collections months later after someone new moved in as well. Very unprofessional, very rude to international students especially. They don't respond to your emails and everything they promise is fake. Literally, hated living here. Had the worst time ever. Trash chute is literally miles away.
