The neighbourhood is quite simple along a road, and there are often students outside in the evenings. It is reasonably safe as long as all doors remain closed.

About Paul Krugerstraat 9, Leiden
The asking price of €320,000 is 23% below the neighbourhood average of €414,800, which makes it look keen. But the studio is also 47% smaller than the average home in the area (44 m² vs 83 m²). So you're paying less for less space. The price per square metre works out at about €7,273, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,386 per m².
The energy label is D. That's a middle-of-the-road rating, not super efficient, but not the worst either. You can expect moderate energy costs. In the neighbourhood, 60% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is fairly typical for the area.
Leiden Centraal station is about 0.9 km away, which is roughly a ten-minute walk. That makes it easy to get to Amsterdam, The Hague, or other cities.
The Transvaalbuurt is a dense, urban area with a young population, many students and singles. One resident says it's "a typical student neighbourhood" and "reasonably safe as long as all doors remain closed." Another describes it as "a cosy good neighbourhood" with nice people, though bikes sometimes get stolen. There's a supermarket, GP, and school within walking distance.
The listing describes it as a studio, which typically means one open-plan living/sleeping space.
The listing does not mention a garden, balcony, or terrace. Given that it's a studio in a 1929 building on a street in a dense neighbourhood, it's unlikely to have private outdoor space.
