As to the ladders being there in the first place, that is actually very realistic. I think every SyFy ship I've seen that allows you to see most of the ship has ladders. Simple answer? Power loss. If you want to get shot down and can't get to your escape pod because there isn't enough power for the lifts, elevators, etc., more power to you. Enjoy the outside air as the ship explodes. Be sure to bring Liam with you.
Seriously though, ladders should be there as part of the ship design. There should always be mechanical ways of dealing with things that normally require electronics. And for a two-level ship, more than one lift seems a little impractical in design. I guess I could see a small lift off to the side that takes you up and down quickly, something like the larger cargo lift, but smaller and faster, and just one of them.
I personally prefer the open design. Like the Captain's quarters as well. No, those aren't realistic at all and I wouldn't gripe if they were made more realistic. But I'll take them while I have them 🙂
You could make three bedrooms (and an office) out of the Pathfinder's pad. Though that may have been considered a necessary 'perk' for that rank and important position. We don't see what Tam's quarters are like, after all.
Yeah, considering Jien Garson got a hole in the wall apartment smaller than your Tempest quarters... Probably a tad unrealistic...

Er, that was just the place she was hiding out in. That wasn't her apartment. It would be kind of stupid to hide from an assassin in your own apartment.

I'm pretty sure that was her apartment. The hidden passage was built into the apartment for her to hide. Doesn't make sense to build a hidden room in an apartment that isn't yours?

She literally says 'an apartment in the sealed off section' of the Nexus.
It's more likely that it is a 'safe house' she had set up ahead of time.
Actually, I've been going through all of it again since you posted that and there are several potential contradictions and inconsistencies. Went back to Tann's original discussions as well as some of the others and several things don't match up. Either way, I would still have a hard time believing she was using a random apartment as a safe house. But since there are so many holes in that whole story, it's difficult to say for sure.
However, I will give you bonus points for taking a joke too seriously 🙂
That's probably the benefactor's apartment. And we just needed to find his wedding album under the mattress to solve all the mystery.
