The room is nice, and the facilities are very user-friendly. There is a supermarket right downstairs, which is very convenient. It's about a 25-minute walk to the University of Pennsylvania. Although this distance feels short in my home country, public transportation here is not very convenient, so it feels far. If you don't pay attention to cleanliness in the room, there can be cockroaches. The apartment mentioned in February that they would hire a cleaning company for a collective pest control, but it's already May and there's still no news. Although there is a parcel locker on the basement level, packages are usually left in the hallway on the first floor, so losing items is common. The surrounding area is relatively safe, but I would not recommend going further west. Overall, I'm quite satisfied.
