After staying here for a year, overall it is very suitable for transition. The front desk communicates well and even reminds me when my tires are flat, helping me change them. They are very friendly and easy to talk to. The front desk is open all week, and any issues are resolved promptly with feedback on reported problems. The location is great, right next to L2 and L3, making it convenient for both going to school and shopping. The only downside is that during peak hours, there can be significant delays in internet speed, which slightly affects gaming.
It’s good experience living in the switch apartment, hope everything goes well

Very good. The staff service is also very good. The hot water supply is sufficient! The check-in experience was good.
The staff are very friendly, and there are many apartment activities to enjoy together, visiting the zoo and Halloween are both a lot of fun.
The house is newly decorated and has no odors. The students feel comfortable and at ease living here.
