The price of £130 per week for these configurations is already quite reasonable. The internet speed is also very fast, which is the fastest I have encountered among several student apartments. The apartment also has facilities like a gym, common room, ping-pong table, etc. The reception works 24/7, which is quite rare in the UK. The downside is that the sound insulation isn't very good; the walls of each room in the flat feel like they are made of hollow boards. However, as long as the seating is normal, this doesn't have much of an impact. My neighbor was initially a person from Myanmar, who often stayed up late at night; later, they even brought their boyfriend over, which made it even noisier. After adjustments from the dormitory manager, they moved out, and I was able to sleep well again. Now my neighbor is a Chinese person, and it's not noisy at all.

My experience staying at the Yixiang Haoke student apartment was very good. The overall environment of the apartment is clean and tidy, the room facilities are complete, and it is very comfortable to live in, making it well suited for students’ long-term stays. The staff have a great service attitude and are able to communicate and resolve issues promptly. The apartment is conveniently located, with complete living facilities nearby, making daily travel very easy. I especially like the view downstairs when it snows in winter—the snow covers the entire street, making it quiet and beautiful, and it feels very warm and healing. Overall, I am very satisfied with the living experience, and it is a student apartment worth recommending.

It was built relatively early, so the facilities are a bit old, but overall it's not bad. The location is very good, situated between the school and Martha's, with a large Morrison nearby. At this price point in this area, it's really quite acceptable.

The apartment repairs are quick, with immediate replacements upon repair requests. The reception staff are very nice, but it's frustrating that the staff can freely swipe their cards to enter the main door. The sound insulation in the house is very poor.

The lighting is quite yellow, suitable for those who like warm lighting. The facilities are relatively old with quite a few minor issues. However, the location is indeed good and it is one of the more affordable student apartments in the area.
