The old Soviet builds are pretty Spartan. In fairness they're like 60 years old now, but yikes.

But, even at that, still a hell of a lot better than being homeless.

Worth bearing in mind the very spartan Soviet blocks were incredible luxury compared to the homes people moved out of. For all of the torture, disappearing, political killing, forced labor, etc. that happened under Stalin, he at least got housing pretty well sorted for the people

No, stalinkas were time consuming and expensive in construction. Real mass housing started during Khruschev and lasted until the end of USSR.

Depends how old. Brezhnevkas have normal kitchen. Which, comparing to modern humant colonies, are big.

Absolutely.
