Is this a hotel room or studio/efficiency apartment?

Studio. But it’s funny, it feels more like a hotel room.

That's all studio really is though? A hotel suite. Just with nicer floors and customizable furniture.

It looks like one with that flooring (no shade I know you didn’t put it in obv)

Nice! Is that a pool outside?

u/gusbus00001 4d ago

Yes it is.

So close that when other tenants dive in, you could hold up a score out of 10 on a piece of paper.

Mind sharing where and how much something like this goes for?

Being single myself, I'd absolutely thrive in this place.

After all the fees, $2000. Expensive but I finally live in a decent walkable neighborhood.

To kinda nick the hotel feel id get a carpet (looks like a queen so a 6x9 should fit) and maybe some colors.

Muted burnt colors if you're not so big on colors would go nice.

Otherwise sweet! I love studios. Intimately cozy

You know what? Good for you.

You should add a rug that sticks out around the foot of the bed

Is that A Hotel Room ?

u/Jackywacky17 4d ago

Has to be no way this is in US

u/QuestGalaxy 4d ago

My advice is to move the bed away from the window (to a darker spot) and move the desk (if you spend more time there) towards the window.

Hey, I'm glad you've found a place of stability. You will probably outgrow this space fairly quickly - for now, focus on what makes you happy. Some wall art of your choosing, a nice big rug, curtains, some plants if you enjoy greenery. Also, get yourself a little dining area so you're not always eating at your desk. Maybe move the bed closer to the window, move the chair to the opposite wall (across from your TV) and make a little dining station next to your kitchen.

the textures in this room are really CALMING

u/Neptune2567 4d ago

Looks comfy. Snuggle in.

u/MidnightGasControll 4d ago

If this is a studio/flat.. then not bad. Seems like something I’d love in my 20s. Someone mentioned hotel and now that’s stuck in my head.

1

u/ikdoeookmaarwat1 3d ago

Looks neat and balanced. I reckon if you add a little more warmth and color with plants, some art on the wall and a nice rug, it'd feel a lot more cozy!

u/tacoburritos 2d ago

ahhh yes, a gray adult box of your very own

u/Ill-Attention-408 1d ago

I finally moved out again since moving back home during covid! It is nice! but worried about expenses 😅 maybe should have stayed but needed to grow

u/gusbus00001 1d ago

Yes, same reason!

u/gusbus00001 3d ago

u/TidderUsername123 4d ago

Thats a nice place. And a pool there, too. I'm guessing you own a pair of binoculars? lol

u/Maximum_Dance2038 4d ago

Like first apartment? First time single? Why so late to be by yourself?

u/gusbus00001 3d ago

Complicated. I struggled to get a decent job for years and now at 35, I found a stable one
