For an intergalactic crime boss, Jabba's palace seems a little too understated.

But the palace is what tells us the most about Jabba. All we know about him is that he's a crime boss at least high enough up the totem pole to have a bounty on Solo's head, and Han doesn't necessarily seem like a big time operator. That's all we know prior to ROTJ's opening.

I don't see wher the argument that the palace is somehow innapropriate comes from, since 90% of what we learn about Jabba's character is from the palace he lives in.
