Zombie Rasputin

Hey guys! I got an excellent deal on a furnished room, where its affordability is just unparalleled; however, there are some downsides, in that the room is 8.5 by 9.5 feet (which is ridiculously small). At first I was adamant in going through with this deal -- I'm saving money right and you can't go wrong with that? -- but now I'm having doubts that perhaps I'm being too naive about this and that I may start hating myself within mere weeks of living in the relatively-cramped room? Also, there are some stringent policies in place where I would have to notify the landlord 24 hours in advance of bringing over a guest, and considering my experience with friends, especially that of the opposite gender, bringing them over has always been more of an impromptu thing. Basically what I'm asking here is if its worth it to compromise room size and some modicum of autonomy for a low price ($100-125 lower than the average price of a room in the area)? I'm absolutely torn here, so I would love to hear some opinions -- and if anyone had encountered a similar dilemma please let me know!
