    • BEST PLACE TO LIVE!

      December 8, 2022
      Hillcrest is the most comfortable place and most affordable to place to live as a student! I've lived here for 4 years and I've never felt more at home! So many amenities, wonderful staff and so close to campus and everything that Cedar Falls has to offer!

      Hillcrest is a great place to live with your friends! There are many amenities to enjoy while you're staying there! The ladies in the clubhouse are always super nice. It's definitely worth it! I highly recommend this housing for students!

    • Hillcrest!!

      November 8, 2018
      Hillcrest is a great place to live with your friends while still having your own personal space. The large kitchen and living room make it feel more like home than many college apartments around here. It is also nice to have a clubhouse to escape to when your roommates are getting to be too much to handle. They also have a great place to play pool, tan, workout, and swim. Great place to live off campus that is not too close or too far away from classes.

      November 6, 2018
      Hillcrest is a great place to live! This is my first year living in an apartment and I am so excited to come home every night to a beautiful apartment that has great location. I live with three of my best friends and it is a perfect place to live together. A few of my favorites about living here is the spacious parking right outside my door, the big kitchens, the back patio/balconies, and the washer and dryer and the two separate bathrooms that are located within each unit.

      November 6, 2018
      I love living at Hillcrest. They are located super close to the UNI campus and provide so many amenities (i.e. computer lab, gym, pool, tanning beds, etc.). The apartments are a pretty good size with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Also, the staff are really friendly and put on great events, so that's a plus.
