      Mine must be too because I didn’t think it was that bad either. It beats a flat share and you could make it look a lot nicer with not too much money.

      It does look a bit shabby. But if it’s up to code, insulated properly and has a bathroom I’d take it. I’ve seen worse “traditional” 1 room apartments for more money than that.

      All of the Americans of Lemmy are in the comments saying they live in something way worse for way more money 🤷

      as long as there’s a separate bathroom and not just a big bucket in the driveway…

      It’s better than the street? Yes It’s 550€/month good? Nope. For 250 I could see it maybe… Of course it depens on location.

    There are apartments in New York that look far worse.

      I’ve seen a lot worse for a lot more in St. Louis, this really is decent. Insulation probably sucks though

        I get that, I’m trying to say it doesn’t look terrible. I’ve seen far worse places. At least they painted and put in a nice floor and such.

    I’ve lived in a garage and it wasnt as beautifully appointed as this one. This is perfectly fine by comparison and not bad value

        Well appointed by comparison with the garage I lived in many years back! Certainly not by comparison with what I live in now, or what should be minimum standards

        Depends. Sounds like pretty good value for Paris, unfortunately.
