    DOES anyone know if the Waterloo place is better then the Cedar Rapids location? Are there any food or Wal-Mart places nearby within walking?

    The Waterloo location is hundreds times better than the CR location. There is a Burger King, family dollar and gas station all within a short walking distance. Also, the Ramada shuttle makes nightly runs to walmart and pretty much anywhere in town youd like to go. As far as the school goes, you will end up with way more behind the wheel instruction as well

    There no more than two to a room. Most of the time i was there, i had the room to myself, because the numbers were fairly low t the time

    The entire experience was awesome. The school and instructors are great, the hotel was very nice. I would reccomend anyone who goes to CRST for training try like hell to get into the Waterloo school. I really feel it was key to my making it at CRST over going to Kirkwood
