"Why have 9 walls when you can have 37," commented another TikToker.

Caitlin commented: "Every time you think there's a big room coming ... ANGLED WALL."

Popular TikToker KallMeKris compared the apartment to the maze in Harry Potter, prompting Rent New York to make a follow-up video, in which everything is the same, except the video's sound, which has been changed to a Harry Potter mashup with music and multiple quotes from the movies.

"It's just in my head," says Daniel Radcliffe's Harry Potter as the creator steps foot into the entryway.

"You both realize of course," says Richard Harris's Dumbledore, "that in the past few hours, you have broken perhaps a dozen school rules...and that it is sufficient that I should have you both expelled...," the dialogue continues.

The creator captioned the follow-up video: "Landlord needs to be expelled ... how many rules have been broken?"

In the comments section of the the original video, a couple of commenters tried to imagine what it would be like to actually live there.

"Imagine trying to find the bathroom in the middle of the night and running into 15 different walls," joked Ronnie.

1. Good luck if you need an ambulance

If they ever happen to require an ambulance, it will be very difficult to extract their dumb ass from that apartment. If they vagal down on that toilet and end up busting a hip with their pants around their ankles, it will be a very painful ordeal indeed. I have had to remove patients from worse situations in my days as a medic though.

5. It would be great for someone with a lot of art - loads of wall space! nt

6. Agreed excluding where the wall is very angled not leaving enough room for person to step back

And enjoy the art

8. Or those very narrow hallways

No room to get distance - I especially would notice since I do not see well close up.

We did an addition last year - the room has seven walls - the corners on three sides are cut off making the room almost octagonal, six walls have loots of windows. It's great for the light but we don't have nearly enough wall space for art!
