The Summit and Jacob Heights

I had a good experience with the Summit & Jacob Heights, the staffs there are nice and thoughtful, especially their vice general manager, Micah. Also, I think it’s a great location if you want to find an apartment that nearby campus. But, you know, it’s better that if you could move in with somebody you know.

I moved in at the beginning of this school year and had nothing but great experiences here! The combination of the friendly staff, quick maintenance work, low prices, and amenities makes this a great place to live. Plus, I got placed exactly where I wanted! I would highly recommend The Summit & Jacob Heights to anyone looking for housing in the Mankato area.

If it was possible to give them zero stars I would. Their room mate matching process is a joke. They just simply put you in whatever rooms are available so they can start charging you rent as soon as possible. They even charge you a fee if you’re locked out after office hours, even when I can see people still in the office. It’s not like I had to get somebody out of bed to unlock a door. Of bigger concern is how they won’t let you view the actually living space. If is was able to see the place and see the amount of debris collected and alcoholic bottles discarded everywhere, I would of ran away in a heart beat. Worse is how the divide all damages equally amount the residents. So since I have alcoholic drug using room mates that break things I’m held accountable for them. All the lecturing in the world could not fix these negligent room mates (literally kids).
Spend the extra $ and get an apartment elsewhere.

You will always pay a lot more. What they cover for utilities is never enough no matter what time of year. Our bill averaged $ 40 – 50 more each month. Even in Spring when heat isn’t used. This place is a ripoff.

The people at Summit and Jacob Heights are crooks and they could care less about the people that they are serving in the community or that attend MNSU. All they care about is making the extra dollar. The apartments are not the best and they act as if it is a five star complex. The way that they carry themselves at that complex is uppity so if you like foul play and people that don’t care about but look at you like a dollar sign then move on in.
