The correct option is C. 'Used to' means something that happened but doesn't happen any more. It shows past tense. It always means something that happened in the past, it should always use past tense. Thus 'used to be' is the correct option. Has to be/had to be/have to be are used to denote necessity or requirement thus A, B and D options are wrong.
