Really great living experience, the only downside is that the lease doesn’t last until the end of August. When moving out, I felt reluctant and my roommate and I stood for a long time in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room with the windows all open. It really is warm in winter and cool in summer. The new apartment is as hot as a steamer, but this place is still very cool. The design here is somewhat similar to a siheyuan, with the wind circling around the courtyard creating a gentle breeze. It's really nice; if I could choose again, we would still choose this one!

Although it is not close to the school, there are plenty of supermarkets around, which is very convenient. The room is quite new and the sound insulation is also very good.

Transportation is convenient with multiple routes directly to the school, and there are many supermarkets nearby, both domestic and international, and the staff are very enthusiastic.
