It feels okay; being able to cook by myself is very convenient, and the cost-performance ratio is also decent. The downside is that ants and bedbugs can easily breed here, and the third brother always throws parties here, which can be a bit annoying.

The apartment was particularly nice when I first moved in, and the air conditioning provided is simply comfortable in the summer. However, there were many issues along the way, such as bed bugs in the apartment, but the attitude and response speed of the management are hard to describe. In any case, their efficiency is particularly low. The funniest part is that there are many Chinese students in the apartment, but they are not allowed to use rice cookers and inspections are frequent, which is really torturous.

The room has ants and bed bugs. The ants can't be completely eliminated. It took a long time to discover the bed bugs after getting bitten. The efficiency is slow. Changing the mattress took half a day. They said it was fine to change the bed frame, but in the end, they didn't change it. Now I'm still getting bitten. It's really awful.

Don't come, definitely don't come, if you come, you'll be bitten fiercely by bedbugs. I've been bitten for three days, sent an email to the apartment asking them to let me wait 😅😅😅. Under the mattress, it's full of them 😅😅.

Can I switch if I don't like my room?
If other students cancel the room, or agree to exchange with you, you can contact the property management team of the apartment, and the staff will try their best to meet your needs. However, except for the different room types and different building areas, the configuration and facilities of each room are the same.
Can I check in early?
If you need to check in early, please contact your consultant teacher. If there are vacancies in the apartment for the corresponding lease period, you can arrange early check-in after accepting the corresponding extra rent
How should I pay my rent?
You can choose to pay annually/quarterly/monthly.
If the rent has not been paid when it is due, will it be directly deducted from my bank card?
Won't. You need to log in to your apartment system account and set up your payment method, pay online or pay by credit card at the front desk of the apartment, or pay by bank transfer, but bank transfer is usually used in special cases (such as online payment difficulties/ payment failure, etc.), we prefer the first two payment methods. When you submit your reservation request, you can choose your payment method.

The guarantor needs to know about your occupancy and agree to your rent payment. If payment is delayed, the property will contact your guarantor. The guarantor must be at least 18 years old, have a full-time job, and have a fixed residence. Generally, the guarantor will be required to provide proof of residential address to verify identity.
