The room is well-equipped with facilities, has ample lighting, and hot water is available at all times. Security is very tight, with multiple access controls to enter the room, and there are closed-circuit cameras monitoring 24 hours a day. It is close to the train station, making transportation very convenient.

LIU**

The efficiency is fast and it is easy to find rental properties that meet the ideal conditions. The staff is also very friendly, and they explained the parts I did not understand in great detail, which helped a lot!

WU**

The accommodation experience is good, close to the city center, and convenient for commuting, but the internet is sometimes unreliable, and the elevator can be out of service at times.

CAO**

When I first moved out, I thought it was quite poor, but after living in other apartments in Liverpool, I feel this one is quite good. 1. Good location, close to supermarkets and train stations. 2. The staff are friendly and responsible; they always email me when a package is delivered, I thought all apartments did this. 3. The apartment app is useful; I can complain about noise issues. The downside is that the sound insulation is not very good, and the room is relatively old.

ZANG**

The environment is very good, the room is also very large, with basic facilities available. Next to it is the train station, and transportation in the city center is very convenient. It is also easy to find food nearby, with KFC and McDonald's available.

LU**

I lived in GC for a year, and my biggest impression is that life is really convenient. Tesco and Lidl are just downstairs, and it only takes a few steps to get to the city center. The only drawback is that it can be noisy, and going to school requires walking up a big hill. But it really is convenient.

LI**

The internet speed is good, the facilities are great, it's close to the city center, near schools, which is very convenient.

LIU**

Disadvantages: The house is not as new compared to apartments that are 20 years old, and the school is far away, especially from the South Campus. It takes about fifteen minutes to get to Litu and about half an hour to get to Wentu. If the chosen room is facing the street, living on a lower floor might be noisy due to traffic, and there may also be people making noise downstairs at midnight, as there are quite a few bars in the nearby block. Advantages: The surrounding facilities are very, very good; there is a train station directly opposite the apartment, making travel by train very convenient. There are several supermarkets downstairs, and it is also very close to the shopping area in the city center, making shopping extremely convenient. The front desk staff are responsible and very nice as well.

CAO**

The geographical location is very convenient!

WANG**

There are many supermarkets nearby, which are very convenient and close to the city center.

I encountered a service lady with an extremely good attitude, it's like discovering a new world! She answered questions professionally and patiently. I've always had operational troubles, and she was able to provide solutions quickly, making me feel incredibly at ease. This kind of service experience is the best! The app is also very simple to use.

The enthusiasm of the front desk is the biggest advantage of this place. However, if the building is low on the side facing the road, there can be a lot of dust and some noise. The apartment is relatively old, and sometimes the supply of hot water may not be adequate, but the cost-performance ratio is good.
