Minipiso
 
I'd like to know the English word for "minipiso" or "estudio", a small dwelling with only one room where you can see the kitchen, the living room, the bedroom, etc. Everything is in just one room, except the bathroom.

Thanks. :)

Studio, is the word.

Just "studio"? And "miniloft" or something like this? :thinking:

I don't know, maybe you want to say.

A little floor, and level minor in your home.
Perhaps I don't understand your question, because I don't know exactly what is a minipiso.

That is a minipiso:

These are advertised as Studio Apartments, which differentiates them from One-bed Apartments. The use of Studio on its own can be misleading, because that might just mean a room without kitchen and bathroom facilities. :)

Right - and "miniloft" would be a studio apartment on the top floor,
maybe with sloping ceilings - like a garret.

In NY a studio apartment in one room. Kitchen facilities are a corner of the
room. There is a small bathroom. A one -room apartment is similar but nicer because it has a separate bedroom.

I don't know but for me it seems more a kitchen cabinet than a minipiso.
I have never heard before it.
