XIN**
Great! The location is especially good.

The front desk of the dormitory is really great, they will quickly resolve any issues after communication. The dormitory frequently holds various activities and also makes an effort to prepare Chinese food. The soundproofing of the dormitory is indeed not very good, and there might be some noise from upstairs and downstairs. But overall, this dormitory is very quiet. It is very close to Zhongchao and St. Luke's campus. It takes about 15-20 minutes to walk to the main campus, which is a bit farther. Overall, this dormitory is quite nice and not as bad as what is said online.
