A step up from sitting in coach, where you get a seat among other passengers, a roomette is a private space with a door and blinds covering the windows. Inside, I found two beds, two chairs, a table, and a toilet.
According to Amtrak’s website, roomettes are around 22.75 square feet, which, for reference, is slightly larger than a standard twin-size bed. The roomette sleeps up to two adults.
