The apartment is pretty good, but the soundproofing isn’t great. You can hear people talking upstairs and downstairs, as well as the sound of cars at night. The internet speed is unstable, and videos sometimes lag. There is a supermarket downstairs, and the school is just a few steps away, so shopping and transportation are convenient, but there is no direct train to the airport.

The elevator often breaks down and the fire alarm always goes off on Fridays. Other than that, everything is great. The English Premier League is right downstairs, just a 2-minute walk to the Chinese Super League, and there is a multimedia room and a study room on the 20th floor, which is very suitable for studying.

Convenient transportation, convenient living; everything is fine except for the constant sound of alarms every day due to the nearby police station and ambulance center. It can be a bit noisy, but the sense of security is strong!

This house is very safe, and the location is quite convenient, making daily travel and life very easy. Both the landlord and the maintenance personnel are very responsible and usually come to repair things quickly after they break. The overall living experience is very comfortable, and I would recommend this place.

The room is very new, and repairs are handled very quickly, usually resolved by the next day. The transportation nearby is very convenient, with a bus station and subway station right downstairs, as well as a Chinese supermarket and Chinese restaurants around.

Convenient transportation and a good geographical location. It only takes a few minutes walking to get to school every day, and there is a supermarket downstairs. The room has good sound insulation, and the internet is also good.

I specifically emailed to ask, and I was told that there would be security available 24 hours to help with check-in. However, now that I arrived at the apartment at night, there is no one to assist me with check-in. The customer service on the app "Yixiang Haoju" also doesn't respond, and no one is answering the calls to the apartment. The emergency number is unreachable. I've already prepared to spend the whole night in the apartment lobby, and I'm starting to feel a bit desperate.

The bathroom is not ventilated, and the room has no windows, only two narrow exhaust vents. The sound insulation is not very good. It's noisy every day, especially with a lot of motorcycle police sounds. It's a six-minute walk to the nightclub. It’s noisy all day, and at night there are people playing music on the street with speakers. However, there are many supermarkets nearby, and there is a very convenient large supermarket downstairs. The subway station is a five-minute walk away, and there are also two bus stops nearby, which is quite convenient.

Most of it is quite good, there is plenty of storage, the security is very strict, the reception is also quite good, and there are many small shops around, making it very convenient. It's just that the sanitation was average at first, and a long-term issue is that the lighting is warm but still dim (also, personally I don't like hob, but that varies from person to person).

The apartment is quite nice, but it's a bit noisy around Xiangbao. The price for high-floor studios is more expensive, but in the summer, the higher you go, the hotter it gets. Everything else is fine, and I give a good review to the maintenance staff.
