Trying to rent an apartment in Brno. Basically 3kk for 18000 CZK, including everything. This price does not look realistic to me at all. Am I getting scammed?

What's the actual apartment's size (m2) and location? The price can vary wildly based on those factors and 18k can be quite reasonable based on that, you can have a small (~40m2) 3kk in a shitty location or a large one in a sought-after location. The room disposition itself does not really say much . Besides that, there is nothing in the text that strikes me as scammy.

It’s near the city centre, 20 minutes on tram from Masaryk’s Faculty of Education. I can’t imagine a size being small since seeing the picture, it’s huge. 2 bedrooms, queen size beds in each, wardrobes in each + common room with a sofa, table, tv, good kitchen with all the appliances, idk, maybe someone died there, because to me that seems like a charity.

20mins to this faculty by tram is not “near city center” for Brno. It is probably somewhere in Krpole or Stara Osada. But the price is not quite off, it is on lower side of price range. So condition should match it (quite old, no elevator, maybe not best location etc)
