I can't answer any of the questions you asked because I was very skeptical and wanted a 2nd set of eyes to see if this the whole deal would even make sense before I traveled 2 hours away to be disappointed. 

Maybe also tell their grandma, so that she can tell her child and grandchildren how disappointed she is and maybe the shame will make them come up with the money.

If you advertise it as a 3/1 you're likely to disappoint your foot traffic, whereas a 2/1 + office sets the expectation at the beginning and makes them feel like they're getting something extra.That being said, if the comps are all the same floorplan and being advertised as 3/1s then I would probably leave it as a 3/1 and try really hard to add a closet.

No tenant will ever be disappointed by not receiving a gift from their landlord, some will resent but most simply will not appreciate the gesture.
