The idea
The narrator supplies the image, but it describes how the speaker sees the room. Unit ten's attribution question applies: the vocabulary is the narrator's and the way of seeing is the speaker's, which makes this free indirect discourse doing characterisation.
In practice
Narrator's words, speaker's vision.
Where people slip
Unit ten's attribution test applies.
