Are my standards through the floor if I find that it looks half-ok?
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.
For way more money lol
The problem is probably insulation tho. If its not in southern europe then have fun freezing to death in there during winter.
I’ve seen a lot worse for a lot more in St. Louis, this really is decent. Insulation probably sucks though
This is unlikely to be in New York.
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.
Especially since the price is in Euros.
I dunno, it's in Euros, so I think that pretty much confirms it's NY.
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 where you're from, in France, where this ads come from, this is clearly bad value
Depends. Sounds like pretty good value for Paris, unfortunately.
It's old for sure
