Heidi Griffith is abrasive and invasive. Heidii and Jennifer I believe her daughter are excellent examples of modern day racism and discrimination. You would think they would be happy to rent to a professional but instead pry into your personal life almost asā€¦Ā See More >

    The worst part of Hillcrest Apartments is their managment! They are rude and don't care about anyone but themselves. Customer service is awful! They asked us to fill out papers when we first moved in if anything needed to get fixed and after 3ā€¦Ā See More >

      Can't wait to move out. Management staff are liars and crooks. Get every thing in writing. Don't trust what they say when you view apartments because your lease will not reflect their lies. Make sure their promises are in writing andā€¦Ā See More >

            I have Lived and Endured Hillcrest Apartments for 5 long years. I would NOT RECOMMEND this place in a million years. Primary reason would be because of Management. Except for Anne... HEIDI and JENIFFER are very RUDE to their tenants, and yes, they do get allā€¦Ā See More >

              It's at least 10 degrees hotter in my apartment than outside - with the AC unit on full blast. You'll notice that most units have an extra AC window unit that people have bought on their own. I've compained to the staff, but they justā€¦Ā See More >

                  I have lived at Hillcrest for 4 years and overall it's been a pretty good experience. The rent is unbeatable, it's an older but relatively well-kept complex. The walls are a little thin, but it's a quiet complex and it hasn't been a problemā€¦Ā See More >

                    I lived in Hill Crest for a year about 2 years ago. I had a roommate and after the year we were not going to be rooming together, so we moved out. Overall, I was very satisfied with the value of Hill Crest.ā€¦Ā See More >

                        I lived at Hillcrest for 4 years. It s in unincorporated Glen Ellyn, which is why their rent is cheaper than places down the street (cheaper property tax). This is exactly the kind of place you would expect when living behind a 7-11 andā€¦Ā See More >

                              Hillcrest is a pretty bad complex. The landlord is rude and she acts as if any service call is such an inconvienance. Average wait for a repair is about a week --that's if they respond to your voicemail. (not like they would answerā€¦Ā See More >
