Strengths

Corner unit3.0 of 3.0 pts
The floor plan (Photo 3) shows the unit occupying a corner position, with exterior walls (dashed lines) appearing along two sides of the layout, suggesting windows/exposure on two or more exterior sides. Interior photos do not confirm this further.
Price fit2.2 of 2.5 pts
$995, 45% under your $1,800 to $2,500 band
High floor1.6 of 2.0 pts
Photo 4 shows a view from an elevated position looking across at other tall buildings, with treetops well below and views reaching the upper floors of neighboring towers, consistent with an elevated (4th floor or higher) location. Photo 7's window view of an adjacent building at a similar height level is consistent with this.
Little or no carpet1.5 of 1.5 pts
The bedroom (Photo 8) is fully carpeted, but the living area (Photo 7), bathroom (Photo 0), and kitchens (Photos 10, 11) all show wood-look plank flooring, so carpet is limited to the sleeping area.

Bathtub
98% sure
Photos 0 and 1 both clearly show a bathtub combined with a shower enclosure (a white tub with a showerhead and surrounding walls). Photo 2 shows only a bathroom vanity, and Photo 3 is a floor plan with no bathroom. The visible bathtubs are sufficient for a yes. from zillow #2181 โ†—
In-unit laundry
85% sure
Photo 2 shows a bathroom vanity, and in the mirror reflection a stacked washer/dryer unit is visible, indicating a washer and dryer located inside the apartment itself. from redfin #949 โ†—

Natural light

The living room (Photo 7) has a single mid-sized window over the sink-side wall letting in moderate daylight; nothing close to floor-to-ceiling glass. from zillow #2181 โ†—

Modern & attractive
/10
Dark cabinets with stainless steel appliances and a subway-tile backsplash (Photo 10) give a contemporary feel; the bathroom has a stone-look counter and modern vanity (Photo 0). Finishes are clean but not high-end. from zillow #2181 โ†—
100
Construction quality
/10
Standard apartment stick-built construction. Dark cabinetry, laminate/quartz-look counters, subway tile backsplash, and a one-piece plastic tub surround (Photo 0, 10) read as mid-tier. Window trim and baseboards look ordinary. No concrete/steel exposed. from zillow #2181 โ†—
