The experience is really terrible!! The first and most painful thing is the internet speed! Although there is Wi-Fi on every floor, the Wi-Fi is really, really laggy, and it can disconnect many times a day, just like a college student’s anti-addiction mode. Secondly, I haven't seen any staff downstairs for a week; I can't contact anyone when there’s an issue, and the garbage right at the entrance is always all over the place, looking from afar like a dump site, with no one cleaning it up. The sound insulation is also really, really poor; every time someone upstairs walks or someone passes by in the hallway on the same floor, it's especially noisy! 🥹 I really don't want to stay here anymore....

The dormitory was just built a few years ago. At first, they didn't allow inspections, which is quite appealing. Wi-Fi, I bought it myself; the dormitory's Wi-Fi takes three minutes just to open the school's website, haha. It’s slow enough, and there’s no Ethernet port, so you can’t use a standard Wi-Fi connection. Hot water, there hasn't been hot water for a week, and that's after calling every day to urge them. In the dead of winter, no hot water – if it weren't for mixing hot water from the kettle with cold water, I don't know how we would get by. Security, the front desk temporary staff leave work on time, and I've only seen the cleaning lady twice in six months. My bicycle was stolen, and no one cared, just the front desk "sorry" lady left.

The internet speed is very poor, the front desk often doesn't come to work, and you can't see any staff. I made a reservation on the official website for check-in on Monday, which is also their working day, but the front desk was absent for no reason and provided various excuses saying that I could only check in on Tuesday. The window in the booked room is broken and cannot be opened. I contacted the administration, and they said they would repair it within a week, but there has been no response. Don't be fooled by the pictures online; the actual facilities and services are really terrible.
