A 11×12 room is 132 square feet, which lands in the 36–42 in bracket of the standard sizing chart. Blades need 18 inches of clearance from walls and 8–9 feet above the floor.
For bedrooms, check the fan's low-speed CFM and noise rating too — that's the speed it will actually run at night. DC-motor fans cost more but are near-silent and use about 70% less power.
