I am reviewing the Knoll as a parent. I am giving the Knoll a 5/5 rating based on convenience to campus (on University and 11th), cleanliness, noise level, size of apartments, and safety. Our daughter lives with 3 girls at the Knoll this year. Our son lived at Doran's 412 Lofts last year. We have nothing but great things to say about our kids experiences at the Doran Properties. The apartments are organized to move in on the day and time they say you will move in. Everything is in its place and ready for you to move in. The halls and all common areas are neat and clean. The bathrooms in the apartments are huge, perfect for two or more roommates. There are oversize kitchens, ready for some great get-togethers. Appliances are top of the line and if there are any issues with them working, someone from management will be ready to assist. Parking is available and works out great on the snow emergency days like we had this year. Noise can always be an issue in any apartment complex, but Doran acts immediately on any complaints. If you have someone who is committed to their studies they will enjoy the Knoll, and if you have a child that enjoys meeting people, the Knoll is the place to be. This year, when there were many safety issues on campus, not once did we worry about our daughter and her roommates. The Knoll is well lit inside and out. The management is always aware of the happenings of the campus. The Knoll and other Doran Properties may be off campus housing, but management always knows what is going on with campus activities and alerts the residents. I would recommend the Knoll and other Doran Properties for any students looking for a place to live while going to the University of Minnesota. Go Gophers!
