In this situation, what should I say?
Yesterday a man asked me, “Which speaker would you like?” in an Apple store. Seemingly, he was considering which speaker he should buy.
So he asked me for a second opinion.
One of the speaker was black.
It was a standard model.
Another one was multcolored. It was limited edition which went on sale on the day before yesterday.
The Apple staff recommended limited edition because it was rare.
But I recommended black one.
Because it went well with most home decorating. In my opinion, it suits different types of decor. Maybe the black one would even suits Scandinavian modern furniture to Japanese tastes. But multcolored model choose interior tastes. Maybe it matches a flashy room or something like that.
But then, I was not able to bethink these words in English. So I wasn't able to give any good suggestions. Ugh, I’ve felt regret!
In this situation, what should I say?
A) What kind of the interior decoration is in your room?
B) What is your room's interior decoration like?
C) What is your room like?
I wanted to give him a good suggestion as best as I could.

In this case what you wrote in your question is perfect. I know it can be difficult to think of what to say when asked an unexpected question. You can always ask him what he likes best too. What does your room look like? would be a good question to ask, then you can suggest which one would look better in his room.

A, B, or C would be fine, but to ensure the optimal understanding of your question, I would choose B.
- Inglés (US)
Option A is not fine. The use of the article "the" is incorrect. If you take it out, it's correct but still awkward.
If option C, they might get confused and wonder why you would ask that.
Use option B. It's more to the point and will be better understood.
