2) In Thompson style, whether the single suite type they have will actually be a true 1 Bedroom Suite (I.e. with a truly separate sleeping area) or the more Thompson-typical single large(r) space with no real separation.


This has never been intended to be a Thompson, the Thompson is around the corner (separated by the Mama Shelter) and seems to have a backdoor connection to this property. The similarity in decorations makes sense because "tommie" was positioned as a little brother to the more mature "Thompson".

The small room size seems to be a brand standard when it was a standalone brand, the tommie Austin rooms are also tiny like that.
