Apart from its length, it only seems to have advantages.
I don't like it. To me it implies a room from which you can view a funeral.

And perhaps even grandstands.
Funerals generally include the final disposition of the body.
Funeral viewing room sounds like a room where you can view the funeral. I
suspect modern ones have very large screens and nice sound effects.

"Wake rooms" was at one time my favorite, but then I was told that some
people might associate "wake" with a particular denomination as well.
