Answer 1

Here is your best answer, buy a cualk gun and some silicone and silicone around the perimeter of the room good luck

Answer 2

If the appearance is what bothers you, you could install molding, either cheap quarter-round or something nicer. You'd probably have to leave it behind when you move away, since it will leave nail-holes.

Answer 3

sounds like they did not install baseboard and shoe moulding (if is a hard surface floor). this is something for your landlord to do.

Answer 4

You can buy lengths of skirting and stick it on with no more nails. It is a bit of a nuisance though to do the corners.
