Question
The other day, I saw a moment on HelloTalk that described the view of Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas. I also saw a question from a reader about the structure of a sentence in the moment. The sentence is “Double the size of an average room on the strip with a lot of luxury for close to the same price". My understanding is that the subject of this sentence is omitted, double is verb, size is object, an average room on the strip is attributive, the rest of the sentence is adverbial. I don’t know if I am correct. I hope someone can tell me the correct elements of this sentence. Thank you very much.

(the room is) double the size of an average....
understood subject = the room
understood verb = is
adjective = double
adverbial phrase = (on the strip)
prepositional phrase describing the room = with a lot of luxury

Is “moment” a thing on HelloTalk? I’m not familiar with the app so I’m not sure what the right word would be.

Since you’re quoting the whole sentence, the full stop goes inside the quotes.

Hmm, I probably don’t know enough proper grammar to be able to critique the analysis. I’m not even sure double counts as a verb here, since it’s just describing that it’s twice the size rather than describing the act of doubling. If it is a verb, the object is [the size of an average room on the ship]. I’m not sure what attributive or adverbial phrases are, but “with” and “for” are prepositions that link extra information about the omitted subject.
If we’re talking purely structurally, this sentence is actually ambiguous. The things linked with prepositions could actually be linked to the average room on the ship, it’s context that tells us it’s not twice the size of [a standard room with extra luxury for the same price].

People post some pictures or short paragraphs there, like “friend circle”, we call them “moments“

Thank you very much. This is the original text:
Hi everyone.
This is a view from one of the rooms in the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, where every room is a suite. Double the size of an average room on the strip with a lot of luxury for close to the same price. This hotel spared no expense in design or decor. It is easy to feel as if you have instantly arrived in Venice, Italy with canals and shops throughout. A lovely place to visit if you're in the area and can't get to Italy.

"Double" is not a verb; it is an adjective. The omitted subject would be "It" or "The room". There is no object in the sentence because there is no transitive verb present.
