Very professional room search service. I am very satisfied with the service of living in a foreign land and help me solve the problem of the first step abroad in a timely and professional manner. The dormitory is located in the urban area. It is convenient to live and study. There are many Chinese students and they feel safe. It is highly recommended to live in a foreign land.

I booked a small studio, the room was cleaned very clean, and the people at the counter answered every question. And it is very good to provide me with proof of check-in in advance before moving in for bank account opening.
