While I liked the look of it, my ZoE scaled the walls of the IRIS pen at about 10 weeks old. It was a safety hazard, as I was worried she'd fall over the top of it. I don't recommend it at all!
I ended up using a child's playpen, the Superyard XT. It worked well, as she couldn't scale the walls, and I liked that I could easily take panels out and make it smaller.
A friend of mine as chihuahuas that are hardcore climbers. She uses a huge dog crate as a playpen for them, & has a bed & food/water toys at one end and potty pads at the other.
Some on here have had a good experience with the potty apartment you described....I believe member SouthernBelle04 successfully used it with her little girl Katie Scarlett.
I think is wonderful that you are doing your research before you get your puppy
