University of Iowa Dorm Reviews

🧐 What do students think about the dorms at University of Iowa?

Burge Hall

18 Reviews

The students on my floor were animals and super unruly, up at all hours of the night and making way too much noise. The RA was generally unhelpful and often had to rely on other staff for help. That said, location is unmatched, recently renovated, dining hall attached, and spacious dorm rooms were great. Bathrooms were usually fairly dirty, but got cleaned very regularly, even on weekends. Overall, I would recommend, as most of the problems were the fault of students and a single RA and not applicable to the hall itself, which is very nice and well kept. more

Catlett Hall

13 Reviews

“

I loved Catlett! People always call it a hotel, but I loved it. The friends I made on my floor are still my best friends to this day. The bathrooms are pod style which was amazing. A few times they weren't getting cleaned and people left them dirty, but overall, amazing experience! more

Rienow Hall

12 Reviews

“

Overall, my room has been excellent. I've had several run-ins with cockroaches, but nothing for the past few weeks. My RA is a great guy and very helpful. My only complaint is that I was given a dorm room that is separated from the rest of the rooms on the floor by a locking door. I feel like I would be much more connected to the rest of the floor had my room not been placed where it is, and frankly I'm not sure why it has to be this way. Also, the AC is a bit inconsistent. The desk workers are always friendly and most of the people I meet here are friendly as well. more

Hillcrest Hall

9 Reviews

“

I lived here my first semester of college and I loved it. It was a great experience to be living away from home and living with another person. It was really nice to be able to customize our room the exact way we wanted it. The dinning hall was located in the building so it was really nice to have easy access to go get food during the meal times. There was always a lot of options to choose from at every meal. There was also a little convince store in the building which was nice if you didn't like what was being offered for the meals or if you wanted a snack or drink. I really liked how each room had its own sink in the room. This made it much easier to get ready in the morning so you didn't have to go all the way to the community bathroom. The only downside to living here was that most of the classes were on the otherwise of campus. The bus system was really nice to use when it was cold but the walk was about 11-15 minutes depending on where you had to go. Overall I had a great experience and would recommend the dorm life for any college freshman! more

Petersen Hall

Peterson Hall is a great dorm to live in at Iowa. It is clean, safe, and pretty quiet. Everyone is super friendly, the staff and other students. The walk to classes are not too bad either and the views are really nice as well. more

Daum Hall

“

I can study well at Daum Hall and it is convenient. I have a lot of privacy and it is quiet. I am glad that it is close to where my classes are held and it is close to where I like to eat. It is also close to downtown. more

Mayflower Hall

6 Reviews

“

Mayflower Hall is known for being the least desirable residence hall available at the University of Iowa. While I agree, I would say the staff does their best to keep everything in their power to make living there enjoyable. I do not enjoy living in Mayflower, but I do not hate living there either. Sometimes the stairs are a little dirty, but it is always picked up within the next 24 hours. My first day, we had to get the shower head in our suites' bathroom. This was an overall positive experience as the maintenance man was quick and prepared. more

Cattlet Hall

It was wonderful!! Pod Style bathrooms that were well kept and great R.A's that care about their residents. The faculty members are all nice and do a great job keeping the building clean. On campus and having the dining hall downstairs is a plus. more

Slater Hall

3 Reviews

“

I love the fact that slater is smaller than all the other dorms and feels more like a community than being so big like burge for instance. I would say that a place for some sort of food would be very nice and some upgraded common areas. It seems like we have the least amount of stuff for common areas than all of the dorms. more

I love living at Stanley! I have met so many phenomenal people here. My RA is super kind and fun, and the people in my hall are welcoming and friendly. The staff that clean every day are also amazing and remind me of how hard they work in order for us to be able to stay there during the pandemic. I'm super grateful! more

It has been a super fun experience so far! The people are friendly and the rooms are nice. It is usually known as "dirty burger" but it has been renovated and is so much nicer now. The rooms are also pretty big. more

Parklawn Hall

1 Review

“

The parklawn hall is in a weird location because it us pretty far from the actual campus but as far as the rooms id say it’s completely worth it because we have some of the biggest rooms and even tho theyre old they are so good and the staff is super friendly and helps out with any problem more
