Thats great stuff.. really don't see much for you to tweek. I really like the poster on the back wall and the simply maya grafitee.

Its under the final Gather settings on the render options.
Its Sampling Quality. ajust your min and max samples. it will probly be set to like -2,0 you might change it to like 0,2. You can also play around with the filter used.. The Mitchell and Lanczos are 2 of the sharper ones with Lanczos being the crispest. IMHO the Mitchell is the way to go.
