The shortcomings of the oven, refrigerator, and stove are that there is only a public washing machine.

Overall, this is the best room in the area of Hadr. The city center is right next to it, and across the street is Sainsbury’s. A short walk leads to Tesco, and it's also very close to the school. However, my room has been occupied before, and the kitchenware is a bit old and harder to clean. The induction cooker doesn’t require special pots and can light up directly (regardless of the cookware). The bathroom is a bit small, and the layout of the room is not very rational. There isn’t a bedside switch, so to turn off the light you have to run to the door to do it and then come back to bed. The heating is also inadequate, with only timing and temperature control… it might as well freeze you. I don't know if it will be warm in winter. The good thing is that the key is always accessed via a card swipe, which avoids the need for a physical key lock.

Overall, it was really quite nice. The staff were also enthusiastic in helping to solve problems, and the accommodation was comfortable. It's just that the dormitory was a bit dirty when I first moved in, but I cleaned it up myself and it was okay afterward. However, a few of the facilities in the room were broken, and the repair time was a bit long. Overall, I was still satisfied.
XIAO**
The cost performance of the apartment is quite high, but the front desk has reduced staff, and no one is working now.

Overall, this is the best room in the area of Hadr. The city center is right next to it, and across the street is Sainsbury’s. A short walk leads to Tesco, and it's also very close to the school. However, my room has been occupied before, and the kitchenware is a bit old and harder to clean. The induction cooker doesn’t require special pots and can light up directly (regardless of the cookware). The bathroom is a bit small, and the layout of the room is not very rational. There isn’t a bedside switch, so to turn off the light you have to run to the door to do it and then come back to bed. The heating is also inadequate, with only timing and temperature control… it might as well freeze you. I don't know if it will be warm in winter. The good thing is that the key is always accessed via a card swipe, which avoids the need for a physical key lock.
