Larger rooms are better than smaller rooms for many reasons. Yes, you can treat a small room and make it acceptable, but it takes a lot of treatment. Much more treatment - especially bass traps - proportionally than a larger room.

One problem with small rooms is the walls are all close to you, so the reflections are stronger than when the walls are far away.

Another problems is that the modes start at a higher frequency and are farther apart. So that makes the bass response worse.
