OP is very convenient! Downstairs is the bus station, which is only ten minutes from the city center, and it is also very close to the railway station and bus station.

very good, very clean, very good value for money
SONG**
The Internet speed is unbeatable and fast. It is very convenient to go to Haifei campus at the bus stop downstairs. There is a convenience store opposite the apartment. The library is also very close. The cost performance is very high. The disadvantage is that the bathroom has no shower and exhaust fan, and the window opening angle is not large. It is not very breathable, but it is also good and does not affect normal life.
ZHANG**
The geographical location is very good, the price is very high
