Thanks, Iza. :D
What about: I found an apartment that has four rooms. And which one sounds more natural to you in speech?
I prefer the second one, though.

I found a one-room apartment. :wink:
I found a four-room apartment. :wink:

Hi,
'That' is used more often.
I like Casiopea's suggestion; it's shorter and it conveys the same meaning.

They are both correct in British English. In American English, we would use "that" instead of "which" in a restrictive clause. Both forms would use "which" in a nonrestrictive clause:
I found an apartment, which has four rooms.

Yes, a modifier does it better. :P

Here we have:
I found an apartment which has four rooms.
I found an apartment with four rooms.
I found a four-room apartment.
I found an apartment, which has four rooms.
In a word, they all give the same meaning and are grammatically correct? 
Let me expand yours:
I found an apartment in California, which has four rooms, that overlooks the Golden Gate.
Does this one make sense?

Here we have:
I found an apartment
which has four rooms.
I found an apartment
with four rooms.
I found
a four-room apartment.
I found an apartment,
which has four rooms.

Relative clauses should directly follow the noun they modify. This avoids confusion. In your sentence, it appears that California has four rooms.
In California, I found an apartment, which has four rooms, that overlooks the Golden Gate.
I found an apartment, which has four rooms, that overlooks California's Golden Gate.
