Overall, I had a great experience in this apartment. There wasn't a ton of street noise even though the apartment is on the ground floor facing the street. It was very clean, and though it was small it was very comfortable and very well-built. The smallness didn't feel cramped at all. The architect did a good job of making sure that all the spaces were the right size, whereas most small apartments in NYC seem to skimp on elbow room in the shower and around the sink.
I should note that was a bit confused by the photos, just to make sure no one else makes the same mistake. I thought it was a 1-bedroom apartment rather than a studio, because one of the photos shows the couch from one angle and another photo shows the couch with the pullout bed extended from a second angle. Ultimately I should have been more careful — after all the title of the listing explicitly says "Studio" — but the photos could also be more clear.
