I recently moved into University Hills and I am very happy that I did. The staff is very friendly and overly helpful they went out of their way to make sure my move in was smooth. They recently added a dog park which Ive gotten lot of use out of. Im looking forward to spending another year here. I would recommend this place to others.

Too bad you cant rate this place a negative number or a 0!! This place is the absolute worse!!!! Do NOT MOVE HERE parents you will be very disappointed and its a waste of money for a crappy apartment! Everything may look nice and done but you will start noticing problem after problems they always take the cheapest route to fixing things. The manager sucks she never gets back to you when she says she will she needs to be fired I was going to get a package the other day and I needed my license which was never an issue before and she didnt ask the person in front of me for one why was I the only
One getting asked? Then my roommate was told he could have some of his late fees off and she okd it but when I asked to have mine taken off because I was out of town and mistakes happen I forgot never been late before she said no again why is that okay? This place is nothing but judge mental, unruly and discrimination. I will never recommended this place to anyone get out while you can!!!! This place is overpriced for what you get by far I would rather go to edge or any other college housing then this nasty disgusting place!

This was by far the WORST place I have ever lived in my life!!!! The management is so poor and its quite sad how they are so okay with taking advantage of college kids and making them feel unsafe especially in one of the biggest cities for sex trafficking. DO NOT LIVE HERE!!! When looking into this apartment, my roommate and I were shown a beautiful room, but were given the most worn down room there was. When we moved in, there were holes in the screen door and when we called to ask for it to get fixed they tried making us pay for it! Also, on my first day of classes I had to come home because our sink would not stop overflowing and it took forever to get someone to even come look at it. Every time you run the shower your sink would overflow. I moved home before my lease was up because of how horrible it was to live here, but I still kept my stuff there. I had until July 31st to move out, 2 weeks before this date, I came a week before this date to get my dresser, night stand, and bed. When I pulled up to my apartment building the building door was propped open with MY record player box. Then as I walked in I saw that even my apartment itself was opened! I walked in and they had my record player plugged in, and all of my furniture was stashed to the side with a note on it saying, DO NOT TOUCH, for Rob and John. Which must be the workers already trying to claim MY STUFF before the date I was even supposed to move out. DO NOT LIVE HERE! Look at all of these negative reviews it is obviously a scam. They try and bribe you when signing your lease by giving you $200 gift cards because they know they will scam way more money than that out of you by the time you leave. WORST PLACE EVER!

U Hills Problems
FIRST OF ALL...Its extremely overpriced because we each have to pay the $550 in rent instead of it being a combined payment. They say its because were paying for our own bedrooms. The first bedroom doesnt even have a light and the electrical outlets only work if the switch is turned on. The second bedroom has a door in it that leads to the hallway (which is weird) and its impossible to access because the fullsize bed furniture blocks it no matter which way you arrange it. The bedroom is about half size of the other bedroom and has no window or air circulation.
The bathroom is small with poor ventilation and it had smuck on the wall that looks like it came from smokers being here before us. Spiders always come down from the bathroom vent. The cold water in the bathroom barely comes out and the hot water pours intensely.
The popcorn ceilings and walls are ugly.
There were stains on the walls, ceilings and holes in the floor and cabinets. The furniture that we each $40/m for (on top of the $550) was ripped. The floor is very weak. When you walk you feel like youre about to fall through. Also, you can hear everything the people above you are doing. The front door code never works, sometimes you have to unlock the door 7 times just to get in and lock it twice when leaving.
There is no dishwasher in the kitchen.
The blinds continuously break.
The balcony and rail is shaky.
(If you touch anything, itll break)
The cable is bad and loses signal.
The WiFi is bad and loses signal.
There has been heavy construction on every road surrounding these apartments since moving in which effects the water by causing it to shut off, makes it hard to walk to campus and drive anywhere.
The staff lost a couple of my packages and they wont let your roommate pick up packages for you. The staff doesnt answer emails in a timely manner. Theyre dishonest about some of the events theyre doing (lied directly to us about 3 times.) The staff and maintenance can and WILL come into your apartment whenever they want. A maintenance guy was fired for stealing from an apartment.
Security didnt answer the phone both times we called during an incident. There are drug addicts here who have had some crazy episodes and used drugs publicly. At one point a girl had to run from her abusive boyfriend. There are always police and security here but the staff never tells us whats going on. There are no security cameras. A guy snuck into the building and convinced residents that he was apart of the electric company and tried to get residents to switch to another program.
We had a mouse come in and so did our neighbors upstairs but staff was very unbothered by this and handled the situation on their own time while we had to live with a rodent for a little while.
If youre moving here to escape dorms, DONT. The environment is the same as far as loud parties, neighbors who scream, neighbors who leave trash in the hallway, neighbors who try to open my BEDROOM DOOR FROM THE HALLWAY, neighbors who dont know how to park, and their obnoxious dogs.
The building smells awful. The dumpster is in an inconvenient location.
Laundry room in the basement is terrible. It cost $1.25 for wash and $1 for the dryer but you have to dry it 3 times in small loads on high heat for it to actually get dry. Also its nasty because people dont cleanup after themselves and leave hair and crumbs in the machines.
On the plus side, we were provided internet, cable, grills, sewage, trash and water. The pantry is pretty big and the kitchen is decent. Its close to campus if youre a student. The fireplace outside is nice. Maintenance responded to work orders quickly and were very cool except for the mouse incident.
Overall, we didnt really like it here though.
Good luck if you still decide to live here.

After living here for about a year I can give Uhills a 12/10 rating! I lived at Olde Towne the previous year and when I moved in there my apartment was trashed and staff members stole over $1000 of items from my incoming roommate while cleaning the apartment. When I moved into Uhills it was spotless, I got the floor request I wanted, and I love how pet friendly they are! All dogs are welcome:)

Do NOT live here. I made the mistake of signing a lease here this past year and it is by far the worst place I have ever lived. FALSE ADVERTISING. Do not trust any positive reviews anywhere online for this place because they give incentives for people to leave good reviews (a friend was offered one last year for one that's how I know). The management is poor, and the living areas themselves are falling apart. For how gosh darn expensive of a place it is, I would expect better customer service, but trust me the manager is always conveniently "out of the office" when you call and will NEVER get back to you. If you plan on living here I hope you don't mind the constant smell of weed everywhere, seeing as the management won't do anything about it. I have reported smelling it constantly many times to the point where my own apartment and stuff smell like it, but they claim that they cannot (AKA will not) do anything about it. So they basically just condone *illegal* activity. I ended up filing a complaint with their corporate office since I was not being heard whatsoever. Just please don't live here...

So far its been a great experience! This area is mainly for college students that can even afford a place alone. To disrespectfully complain would be out of my league first and foremost. I would like to just commend my apartment for being up to scale as of cleanliness. As for maintenance, I strive to care for this place as well as the management of this place will do.... so far so par

I lived at this apartment complex for two years and almost nothing went smoothly for me and my roommates. The first year I lived in the older unit. Upon moving in there was black mold, and bed bugs. The issues were solved within a few weeks. However, management changed and everything became worse. You pay a ridiculous amount of money for your apartment and amenities, I think it's fair that you should be greeted when walking into the office. The printer works about .01% of the time. And the office seems to communicate poorly with maintence. Now that I have moved out (finally) I received a letter in the mail noting I owe $50 for "paint." I kept my apartment spotless during my stay, but the paint is so cheap that if you get water on it, it's stained forever. Still confused as to how it would cost $50 to paint over maybe 1 or 2 spots?? So overall my experience was terrible at University Hills. If I could give anyone advice it would be to live at Olde town, Edge, or some other surrounding apartment complex. Everywhere has their problems, but UHills is not at all worth the money you will pay.

DO NOT LIVE IN BUILDING E 4-Bedroom apartments!
I will not live in the apartments ever again or even speak to the apartment manager ever again after I move out. Again, Do not live in Building E, the 4 bedroom apartment with the common space and kitchen. Each of the roommates bedroom door locks are identical to a 4-person unit and if you leave valuable stuff in your room, even if you locked your own door. Your roommate will go to your room with their identical keys to your bedroom lock and take your stuff. If your item is taken you cannot complain to the manager Ashley as she will not help out unless you have security cameras in your own bedroom that someone has taken your items then you can prove evidence. Basically, if you want your valuable items stolen from your locked bedroom with no video cameras or bedroom door locks different from your roommates then go ahead live here.

I have lived at University Hills for 3 years. The first year was fair. I and my roommate moved into our unit and we were told that our apartment unit was cleaned and ready for us to move in. The apartment was not clean. It was filthy ended up cleaning it up ourselves. Two months into living here my roommate and I had to move to a different building cause they were redoing the units. That was a pain because we had little to no help and only had 48 hours to move all the furniture and our stuff after we just moved all of it two months before. Other than that first year was okay.
Second year was when they became under new management. It became a cluster cluck. Things in our unit stopped working, AC unit, our drains were not working right, cable and internet completely stopped working. My roommate and I would report it and they said they would have maintenance guy look at it but he never did. So for most of that summer my roommate and I would stay at our parents house cause at least there was AC. And internet access.
In the middle of my second year living here. I received a call from the office. About 4 months prior I signed a lease for a 3rd year because it was my last year of school and I didn't have time to look for a new apartment because I was going to study aboard for the summer in Spain and when I would get back will only have a week to move in and it was just convenient to stay, despite the problems. But the phone call was about them raising the rent and deposit price. When I signed a new lease everything was locked in that included the rate they established at that time. They were trying to "Bait and Switch " me. I wasn't having it. Considering that its illegal to do that. I ended up going to the office and putting them in their place. Found out they lost my lease I signed in October of that year. Good thing I received an electric copy from my email and saved it to my computer. I had to email them my copy so they had a copy. What kind of company or business loses a legally binding document and then performs a bait and switch act? A place where lazy and incompetent people work. They assumed I was some dumb college girl that knew nothing about legal stuff and they thought they could get away with it. Not on my watch they didn't.
My third year was fine. Staff was okay. Friendly so that's a plus.
I advice before applying here to really make sure you are sure you want to live here. It may seem perfect because its close to campus and they have "new" apartments but my advice would be to shop around a bit before you choose university hills apartments because not everything is what it seems.

I swear if there was less than a star I would rate them as the worst place ever to live at. Please read this:
I've lived at the University Hills for three years at three different units. I paid them a security deposit which was $515 when I first signed up their lease for the first unit and stayed there for a year. After that year they moved me out to a different unit because they had to make maintenance to the building, and charged me more than $100 for God knows what (telling me just now it's for cleaning my first unit). I didn't ask them to move me out but they did move me out and took this money from my security deposit without telling me anything during that time (that they are going to charge me more than $100)!!! :(
Anyways, I stayed at the second unit for a year and paid my bills and utilities.
Then I moved to the third unit and paid them another security deposit which was $224 and it seemed to me like a total of $739 (I thought my security deposit was fine and it's all good). GUYS BE CAREFUL >> When I moved out to the third unit, they transferred my security deposit to credit which means they used it to pay for bills and utilities without telling me anything and without my permission.
They used all of my security deposit without my permission!! I have paid them several bills for the utilities and have made accounts online to pay the bills myself but just when I eventually took off. They called me and told me you're not getting any money back because we used it all for the utilities!!

Simply we complained about black mold in the bathroom and they spray painted over it and of course it came back. Not sure if it's the harmful kind but it's black and its mold. Also they have been caught in several blatant lies which made us even more upset. The rooms are okay but something important will break and it will take forever to get pretend fixed.

Though I was not able to sign a lease to live at University Hills because my plans changed. I had went in to the leasing office for a tour the staff was very friendly and outgoing they were very helpful and made me feel like I belonged there. If I would have ended up in Toledo I would have signed a lease. The property is nice, friendly staff, then accept pets and the location is fantastic. I would highly recommend University Hills to anyone in search of an apartment.

Awful living conditions, way too expensive, and horrible maintenance crew. I had a broken window for 3 weeks in the middle of winter before they got around to fixing it. Two of my friends cars got broken into in their parking lot and they did nothing about it. We had a mouse problem for almost a week before i had to take matters into my own hands. The landlords can also walk into your apartment at anytime because they have the door codes.

DO NOT LIVE HERE! LOOK INTO OLDE TOWNE OR AWAY FROM CAMPUS! Management is completely incompetent. It is pricey compared to others, and the amenities or location do not reflect the increased price. My apartment got broken into and over $3,000 worth of stuff was taken. When I went to the police department, all I had to say was "University Hills" and the clerk already knew the address and other information. If burglaries are so common that the police department already knows your address, do you really want to live here? Additionally, the management deleted the security tapes before I could review them so me and the rest of the tenants that got robbed that week were out of luck. And no, I was not the only one that week or that night. Furthermore, if you want any maintenance done, you have to hold the office staff's hands like little children because they aren't reliable enough to actually hand the work order to the maintenance guy, but they're always goofing off when I walk in there. Finally, the apartments are very run down and poorly maintained. Honestly, it would probably make more sense to live in a dumpster on campus because you get a better location, security, and maintenance in that dumpster.

Lived here a couple of years. Minutes walk to College of Business and bus stops to other buildings. Safety was okay, there are police/guards driving around and checking inside the building every night. I still don't recommend to walk home late at night though (call for Night Watch service from school!) Have 2 door keys, 1 to get inside the building and 1 to get into your apartment. Encountered with some prank Fire Alarm a few times in the middle of the night until the office announced to fine some enormous amount if someone gets caught doing that again.Your packages are safe with them if you're not home to sign/receive. Internet, Trash, Sewer, Water were included (or FREE, looks like they also have Cable now). So we only had to take care of electric bill which isn't too bad if you are at school all the time anyway. There are couple washing and drying machines inside every building, usually being abandoned during week days but pretty busy during the weekend (normal college life).
I always paid rent on time and never had any trouble with the office. Rent rate was relatively OK at my time and would stay the same rate if renewing the contract, but higher and higher each year for new comers even I didn't really see many changes around (at least to my building). You get charged if losing your keys. They mail you back your deposit later, not right at the time you move out. I didn't have issue with receiving deposit but my other 3 roommates had problem for some reason. They received the money eventually but it took quite awhile because the office had to route to the corporate to issue the check or making decision on any related issue plus snail mail.
I think my stay here was pretty pleasant.

As a graduate student at the University of Toledo, I found the community at the University Hills to be perfect for me. I do not own a car, so being directly across the street it makes things very easy for me to walk to and from classes/work.
The community itself to me is a quite one. I have never had any issues with the other residents that live around me, which is great because I am trying to finish a Master's Degree. Also, I feel very safe within this community, and have never had any types of issues with feeling uncomfortable walking at night.
One issue that could be seen is that looks expensive to live here, but things you need to think about is that you are paying for location as well as an updated apartment. I have only lived here for 7 months and the upgrades that they have made and are making are amazing. It will be nice to have a fitness center right across the courtyard, along with other great amenities.
