Most suitable for just about everyone = stay without owner
Cheaper and easier to find = stay with owner

Stay in accomm who someone take the whole unit and real with landlord - Pros : you get the freedom, chatting with visiting friends in living room, take your time enjoying cooking and bathing, chin cai cleaning when you don't feel like doing it. Cons - you might be paying more than the market price, the guy deal with landlord just keep secret of the total rent and put a larger portion of rent on the other tenants, you've no idea how he/she deal with the landlord, ending up he's the perfect tenants and you're the troublesome one. House could be messy where things just sporadically settle on floor. Fridge pack with rotten food.
Stay with landlord - usually cleaner tidier and equipments got fixed shortly if spoil. But unfriendly landlords can pry into your life. A friend of mine was told by her landlord "i heard the sound of water directly go onto the floor when you're bathing, can you switch the shower off when you're applying your shampoo?" And they could be control freak, stating the frequency and time for kitchen and washing machine, setting up a lot of fines, or even ask you to babysit their child.
Good luck

Thanks for your feedback guys! I don't like controlled and curfews environment, so I am gonna opt for those without landlord.. After long working hours, I really need freedom at home/room.
Another question - If I am renting a room - Will it be possible for my friend to stay over when she/he came occasionally? e.g. once in one or two month..

You and your spouse/partner rent entire unit for yourselves, of course.
I will be staying by myself, so I am looking for room with good surrounding environment..
