Dimensions of SWC roomette?

[Bob Dylan]

You must have been the Captain if you had that cabin and your family could hang out with you in your Stateroom! RHIP indeed!

Wow, Ryan. You look about 16 in that picture.

I know, amazing. That was almost 11 years ago, just a few months after I met Amy.
On an LSD all of the department heads get a solo stateroom. As Nav, I was just behind the pilothouse. Good times.

If you're two adults, Amtrak says the roomette is still Ok and I can see where they're coming from, but I've always preferred to book two separate roomettes wherever I could.

My wife and I have traveled in a roomette and it was fine. It just depends on what your relationship as "two adults" is - it's going to be a different experience for a married couple than it would be for a couple of friends. Your legs are going to touch a lot, at the very least. But if you don't mind that because of who you're with, there's actually plenty of room to stretch out in any direction. It's comparable to two business class airplane seats facing each other, but with walls and a door for full privacy.

We've got a trip coming up and we booked a full bedroom this time, but mostly for the full private bathroom that's all our own. The passenger space of the roomette itself was fine for us; it's just that it's not big enough for a full set of facilities.

just wondering about the photo in that screenshot.

Isn't Amtrak supposed to be discouraging shoes on seats?

No.
