Iowa State University Dorm Reviews

🧐 What do students think about the dorms at ISU?

Platt - Willow Hall

1 Review

I have loved it. I feel very safe walking through there at whatever time. It has been pretty quiet so far, which is super nice. The location is amazing because it is right next to a dining hall and it's in close walking distance to a lot of places. more

Elm

1 Review

Something that was nice about oak elm was its location, it was on the east side of campus connected to the best dining hall, in my opinion. One of the things that I didn't like about Elm was the issues that came with how old the building was (i.e., having no working bathrooms for a week--twice, the lack of AC, the heater being very touchy on the temperature, and old window). more

Overall the building isn't up to the date with maintenance, but the location is great. The area outside is a great place to hang out with friends and do all sorts of activities. It's close to central campus and places to get food. more

Roberts

1 Review

Great place to live lots of nice people to talk to I've made a lot of new friends and we have a lot of fun. Roberts is in a good location for me cause I can easily get to my classes either by walking or taking the Cy Ride and it's close to the cafeteria so its easy to get food. more

Linden

1 Review

Linden was a great location for students majoring in business, kinesiology and health, and anything in the LAS department. I would recommend living on the west side if majoring in design or engineering. One downside to living in Linden is that there is no air conditioning. However, this is only a big deal for a couple months. The rooms are bigger on the top floor than the typical size of other dorms at Iowa State. It is also close to Jack Trice Stadium and Hilton, so it is very convenient for sporting events. more

Helser Hall

1 Review

Helser hall has a great location on campus, close to two dining halls, engineering classes, and Starbucks! The bathrooms aren't that nice but aren't terrible either. The one major downfall would be the no air conditioning. When the heat wave came my room reached 98 degrees. The desk were handing out fans to try and help. On the flip side, one good thing is the sense of community. Lots of people during the first week left their doors open making it easy to meet people. The RA's also put together a bunch of fun challenges to get you to meet people. Everyone in the building is super nice. more

The area has exceeded my expectations in terms of safety and maintenance. The neighborhood is quiet mostly, except internal dorm noise. I have loved my experience here. The resident advisors have truly gone out of their way to make us feel welcome. more
