My Experience Upgrading to an Amtrak Roomette for $110

A traveler upgraded their coach seat to a private roomette on Amtrak's Lake Shore Limited for an extra $110. The 23-square-foot space had two seats, an in-room toilet, a foldable sink, and a tray table. The roomette gave the traveler a sense of privacy, but they wouldn't stay in one with another person. Amtrak passengers can place bids to upgrade their tickets through BidUp.
