word request - How would I describe a room with no ventilation?


Let's say I have a room in my house with no windows, no flow of air in or out, isolated from the rest of the house, which makes it impossible to sit there.


How do I describe it? Can I uses the following sentence?



Because of no ventilation it(the room) is always very congested, so it is impossible for anyone to live there.




Is the use of congested correct in this context, or should I use some other word?



Answer



Congested would imply that there is a lot of stuff in there which isn't necessarily true. Stuffy would be the word I'd use.
