120 foot (11m2) apartments exist all over Paris. They're not great, but fine for young single people without children who don't spend all day at home.
Yep, that's what you get exactly. I mean, the space is only the size of 4 queen size beds edge to edge. Typically people in those quarters sleep on futons and fold them up during the day to make more room. The real killer is that cooking in these is tough, because your "kitchen" is 2x2 or smaller with a tiny sink next to a 1 or 2 hob (small ones) electric stove over a dorm-style mini fridge. If you like making real meals and not getting everything from Picard, you have to get very creative.
Not really. I lived for years in an apartment like that and cooked just about anything you'd care to mention without too much effort.
