Bierman is a good place to live for college students in the Dinkytown area and you can't beat the location. I lived there my sophomore year of college and it seems many of the occupants were either sophomores or juniors. The best things about Bierman is it's clean, a reasonable price for the area, and the staff is great. Maintenance was always done in a timely fashion. The doors lock automatically which made us feel very safe. Parking around the area can be tough to find in the winter if you don't want to pay to park in the lot. There are two main down sides of Bierman one should be aware of. The first is laundry. Unfortunately you do have to pay to do laundry and there aren't too many machines. The other is electricity. For three people our electricity bill would be outrageous in the summer and winter months (sometimes almost $200 a month). I think they have changed it so that electricity is included which is a great deal since some bills were so high. Also, be aware that there is only an air conditioning unit in the living room and not in the rooms. Bedrooms only have a heater. Overall though I definitely recommend living at Bierman. It's a gem in Dinkytown where most houses are disgusting and most other apartments are outrageously expensive.

Living at Bierman Place is great because of the location. You're right in Dinkytown and you're super close to campus. The walk to campus is safe and you also get to walk past Subway, Jimmy Johns and Potbelly's plus so many more convenient places to grab some food on your way to campus. There's a CVS pharmacy just a few blocks away which is a nice place to grab some groceries if you don't have a car. The best part is that the apartments are clean and the front desk service is great.

Very impressed with front-desk service. Treated like a real person, not a number. Vastly better than previous complexes I have lived in.
