This is wildly misleading. And, it is a one way ticket and does not even allow a carry-on. Google flights tells me:

    Ryanair allows passengers to board with 1 small item, such as a purse or laptop bag.

Hmmm, so if I am normal human being and need to carry at least a small bag, how much will that cost? 30 EUR for one carry-on bag. Or 50 EUR for one checked bag. Ouch. So realistic minimum roundtrip is (13 + 30) x 2 = 86 EUR.

For a weekend trip back to visit the family one small (40x20x25cm) can work. A carry-on costs 13.5 euros extra.

Doesn't change the fact that the ticket price itself is ridiculously low. Not misleading at all; it really is that low.
