When describing an apartment what does snug mean?

Answer by  jclick (1561)

Using the word "snug" in an apartment description is a euphamism (a nice way of saying) that the apartment is small (maybe even tiny). It is probably hard to move around in and to fit your furniture into.

When used to describe an apartment or house, "snug" usually means small. It is one of those words that realtors and landlords use to make a potentially negative feature sound like a benefit. Most people wouldn't consider renting an apartment described as "tiny" or "cramped," but "snug" sounds much more inviting.
