There are so many spawns and,
I think it would be interesting to know witch map has the most memorable spawn.
Example the first blue spawn on barnblitz.

I would say that to me, when I think of a spawnroom, the first thing I picture in my head is from 2fort.

I'm personally a fan of BLU spawn on the second stage of pl_thundermountain. It's fairly large, has some visually interesting height variation, and has lots of detailing.

I really like Badwater and Upward's BLU spawns. Mann Manor's RED spawn is pretty nice too.

For spawns in symmetrical maps, I'd say Badlands or Lakeside is my pick for most memorable.

koth_trainsawlaser, because there's nothing more memorable than having an instant-death beam of energy placed near your head in a place that's supposed to be the only safe haven for your team on a map.

I have to say my personal favourite spawn is Badwater. It comes out at different angles, has plenty of variation and lots of cover.

Good spawns on attack/defend maps are basically these.

A clever spawn location that comes to mind is the full forward spawn in cp_process. The Blu forward spawn in cp_gorge is also cool for its elevation over the rest of the area.

One spawn that is special is the second blu spawn in pl_frontier the caved in one.

I think some of the best rooms are the ones in the MvM maps, Valve seemed to put a ton of effort into making the MvM spawn rooms interesting. I'm guessing because less players spawn in then a PVP map they are able to put in more props without affecting performance too much.

As for PvP maps I think Thunder Mountain has some cool spawn rooms, with the swimming pool and the mercs planning out their attack. I also like how open the first blu spawn of upward is, though the invisible wall/sky box is way too close and I don't like how you can't fire off rockets/grenades at the stuff in the distance.

Looks like badlands and thunder mountain are the most liked.
Hard to know yet.

One that lets me out in under 5 seconds unlike some where it seems like you spend 5 mins trying to get out (upward 1st blue spawn is like that)

"I like spawn rooms that allow me to leave it soon after spawning, unlike Upward's first BLU spawn which feels like it takes a long time to leave."

In other words: simple spawns.
