where did you hear that there were no showers? I think what they meant was there aren't very many shower stalls. bathrooms are generally small with a showerhead coming out of the sink or attached to the wall. it isn't really that bad. some studio apartments are really small, other are quite spacious. my studio apartment is rather large, but the one I was in before this was barely big enough for my twin bed and a drying rack.

here's some links to the pictures of my apartment if you want to see:

Mine looks very similar to his. I don't have the pictures online. I think mine is slightly larger, but the flooring is the same and I have more furniture. There are lots of videos on youtube of apartments here.

5 down 600 a month

The photos were taken just after I moved in so it looks a little barren and untidy, it looks nicer now, and it is bigger than the photos make it look
