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!

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.

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!

They neglected to clean our carpet before moving in but are now trying to force us to pay to get the carpet professionally and to pay them an extra fee for it which makes no sense. None of our furniture was even set up when we moved in and after asking the landlord about that they never did anything so we had to put our dinner table and dressers together ourselves. If you're not renewing your lease the landlord will literally do back to back showings every day so strangers in your home showing up every day and they don't even show at the scheduled times so it's often inconvenient. Maintenance is a joke, it took them forever to do anything when we lost heat during negative degree winter days and all they did was drop off some space heaters. We asked them to come fix our fridge cause the freezer seal wouldn't stay shut and would often open by itself and defrost everything in our freezer, someone came to look at it but never came and that was literally a year ago. Even the people that live in these apartments are rude, I've run into so many rude neighbors it's just not worth it

THIS WAS THE WORST MOVE IN EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD…read more Upon move in, they did not have my keys ready (took an hour to get them) and the apartment had not been cleaned for me. The floors were filthy and every counter had dirt and stains on them. The bathroom was even worse, including the toilet and sink. The fridge had stains from food and the carpets in the bedroom are completely stained. When I told them these problems, they offered no help, which left my mom and I to clean for 12 hours straight. Along with the mess, most things in the apartment were broken or missing. After many emails and maintenance requests, I still received no help. Eventually, both of my parents went into the office of management in which the property manager said they do not worry about the apartments where "lower income" families reside in. Completely unacceptable. Working with this company has been the most emotional and tiring process I have ever gone through. I have included photos from move in.

They really beautified the older buildings and there are more chain restaurants and newer apartment buildings. But the English Building, where I had most of my classes, still seems to remain the armpit of campus, despite its new floors and classroom computers/projectors. UIUC is world reknown for its services and access for students with disabilities. I've attended two other higher ed institutions and I had to struggle advocating for myself, which was very different from UIUC. The campus was very wheelchair accessible. There was one Anthropology Professor's office I couldn't access; I can't remember the name of the building. There are a few classrooms that are not wheelchair accessible, but DRES (the Disability Resources and Educational Services for students with disabilities) relocates classes if necessary. Here's the DRES website: http://disability.illinois.edu. They offer various services to students with disabilities, even temporary ones. UIUC also has a dorm for students with disabilities who need personal care services. It was called Beckwith Hall and used to be on John Street. But they moved it to Nugent Hall, which is a part of the undergrad dorms. Here's their website: http://housing.illinois.edu/nugent. It's a new building with state of the art technology in the Ikenberry Commons North community. The first floor is home to the Beckwith Residential Support Services program for students with physical disabilities requiring personal care. Floors 3 and 4 houses the new Honors Living-Learning Community. Although there are accessible units in the graduate dorms, there doesn't seems to be anything comparable in terms of assistance with personal care services for graduate students. I did have difficulty finding wheelchair accessible apartments while I was a student outside of Beckwith Hall. Overall, I had a great experience with outstanding faculty and classmates. Of course, there were a few exceptions.

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?
