I lived here for a year and had a great experience! The front desk staff were very friendly. When there was an issue with the room facilities and I submitted a maintenance request, it was fixed the next day! The facilities in the common areas are also very complete, and I often got together with classmates to cook and eat in the shared kitchen!

The dormitory is not considered new, but overall it is acceptable throughout the year, without any major issues. The dormitory easily accumulates a lot of dust, and the sound insulation on the street is poor, with many teenagers shouting at night. The studio's TV is basically just for show, and it's a half-hour walk to the University of Glasgow, about 20 minutes by subway.

Sound insulation: very poorI have been listening to the sound of neighbors washing dishes for half a year, which seriously affects my sleep. No one is handling it. The repair request reported in March has not been resolved by July. It looks like it will be dragged until the lease ends 🤣 Who would dare to live here? Run!

The location is in the city center, making it very convenient for shopping, with two supermarkets nearby. One of the supermarkets is right across from a large Carrefour, and after a few more minutes, there is a large shopping mall. The new resident can quickly purchase necessary daily supplies. There are two major train stations about ten minutes from the apartment, making long-distance travel convenient. The downside is that it is quite far from the subway station, requiring about half an hour on foot. The room has large floor-to-ceiling windows, but the northern side doesn't get much sunlight. The water flow at the sink in the bathroom is a bit small, but it's not a major issue. Currently, the building opposite is under renovation, but it doesn't affect the northern side much. Friends living on the southern side report occasional noise, but overall, it's good. The staff at the front desk are patient and friendly.

It's okay. The facilities are quite good, and the price is reasonable. The location is relatively good. It's a three-minute walk to school. The 24-hour front desk is nice; some apartments don't have this. And the apartment also has some activities.

You need to swipe your card when entering the building downstairs, swipe your card at the turnstile to enter and exit, swipe your card to take the elevator, and the lobby provides candy continuously, which is quite nice.
