  • the best experience I’ve had renting

    My experience living at U-Square has been nothing short of amazing. This is by far the best experience I’ve had renting. The location couldn’t be better for those attending MSU and offers quick access to businesses. As long as I live in Mankato I plan on renewing my lease!

  • hands down one of the best places to live in Mankato

    Living at U-square was a great experience. Kathy, Alan, and the maintenance staff were amazing and always there to help. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and kind-hearted individuals. There was never a time I felt like I could not go to management for help. I lived at U-square for 3 years. It is hands down one of the best places to live in Mankato. And it is right by MSU campus! If you are looking for a place that is safe, affordable, modern, and convenient, U-square is the place to live. Highly recommend this place.

  • I LOVED living here

    I lived here 3 out of my 4 years living off campus. It’s great having everything included and just be able to walk to class every day. I didn’t have to worry about parking my car or paying for a parking pass. I highly recommend this place.

  • management is super reliable and easy to talk to

    What ISN'T there to say about U-Square?! You got dining, you great balconies, clean hallways, all conveniently located right across the street from campus! I mean can you get a better deal? I sure as heck don't think so. Plus management is super reliable and easy to talk to. The only downside about U-Square is that I will eventually have to leave. But until that day I'm going to enjoy every minute of living here and I hope you do too!
