I stayed at Xiongs apartment for two months and I enjoyed it a lot. Xiong is very nice, he made every effort to make my stay pleasant and he showed me a great deal of trust (he was away quite often). He was especially easy about check in and check out. 'Clean, quiet, safe' is definitely the right description for the place.
My best compliments!
(Yes, it takes you 20 / 25 minutes by bus to get to Central Station, but you don't have to change buses or anything - very easy)
