Keeler Apartments 317 Southeast 17th Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 55414

"With the university taking over the property, Keeler has really improved! The staff is amazing, great location (on campus but also next to dinkytown) and the place has really been updated."

"The staff is all really wonderful and slay the game. I don't think there is a better place to live on the U of M campus. There are also a lot of amenities within Keeler that are top of the line. Love this place!"

"Keeler has recently moved their internet access over to the university wide eduroam system. This has been a terrible choice. Ethernet access to apartment Wi-Fi no longer allows for several critical activities, including; accessing university related websites; licensing software such as microsoft office; and others. Additionally, untethered devices are now substantially slower than they originally were. This has caused me substantial problems in the past few weeks with conducting my research, as it is not possible for me to edit large files in office with my laptop or my desktop. Keeler has also recently changed their door lock system to UCards, I suspect in compliance with some university wide mandate. This too is a mistake. Apartments still have physical locks, and thus what was once an easy, single handed process of entering through building security all the way to your individual room, now takes two hands and two keys (your physical apartment keys and your UCard) which makes it substantially more inconvenient to, say, carry groceries into the apartment. Most critical to my frustration with these changes is that they were made without reason. Keeler was fine in the first year I lived here, before all of these changes were implemented. However, all of these completely functional features of the apartment have since been stripped away, making resident life more inconvenient only to satisfy university mandates. I will not be returning to this apartment for another year, and I highly discourage any student from living in this building."

"Overpriced apartment with cheap appliances that don't last the full year. Most Ethernet ports didn't work and the building itself felt cheaply made. Not worth paying for the location"

"The apartment is loud with run down appliances that don't seem to work half of the time. The wifi and Ethernet connections go out frequently. The hallways smell and are rarely cleaned. The location is convenient but the apartment is crummy. Also, good luck trying to get your security deposit back. There are many better options around."
