The intermediary's little sister is very enthusiastic and nice. She patiently answers every question and replies quickly. On the first day when I came to ncp, I was greeted by a broken toilet → I started in a mess, but in the process, my intermediary sister has been helping me and contacting the apartment staff to help me repair the toilet as soon as possible (the British speed is well understood) and has been helping me find a way!

There was no hot water, the shower was blocked and no one repaired it for 2 months, and the faucet of the sink was broken.

The elevator has been broken for over a year.
