The door on this room faces the vestibule of the train car, so your view is technically into the next car ahead of the train. I suppose that you might hear a bit more track noise because of this, but I've never stayed in the room (only looked around) so I can't really say.
True, the door faces the vestibule, but there is a window (next to the closet) that you can look out the other side.
There is no upper level on a Viewliner sleeper, unless you like riding on the roof of the car.

And the crew tends to frown on that idea.
Plus, it can get cold and wet on the roof!

(And watch out for the bridges!
