Explanation:

The protagonist of the story is lost - he is torn between his imagination of a better life with Mangan's sister, somewhere far away from Dublin, and the reality of his poverty, dull life, and family who doesn't show him any affection or consideration. His feelings about his sad life are reflected in the description of the hall - it is dark, lifeless, colorless, completely dull, like his own life.
