I have been living in this apartment for seven or eight months, and the overall experience has far exceeded my expectations! The house is located in a prime area in the city center, just a 5-minute walk to the subway station, surrounded by supermarkets and restaurants, making life extremely convenient. The room is simply and warmly decorated, with complete furniture and appliances maintained like new. The oversized floor-to-ceiling windows provide excellent lighting, and the feeling of being awakened by sunlight every day is truly healing. The landlord has thought of everything, equipping the apartment with a water purifier, smart door lock, and high-speed WiFi. They even prepared basic kitchenware, making it truly ready to move in with just a suitcase. The most surprising aspect is the community environment, with 24-hour security and an elevator card access system, providing a strong sense of safety. The garden downstairs is just great!

Very bad! Extremely speechless! Staff frequently swipes their card to enter your room, moving your things casually, barging in while you are in the bathroom or sleeping! Absolutely no privacy, messing with your belongings! It’s especially noisy in the morning; either it's the huge noise from garbage trucks or lawn mowing, with two and a half hours of continuous high-intensity noise from mowing between eight and ten-thirty, making your heart race uncontrollably! Try not to stay here! It’s too frustrating, unless you want complete lack of privacy, unless you can tolerate someone who smells like alcohol unexpectedly barging in and messing with your things, even the bedding gets touched!!
