Another thing to go by is texture and prefab sizes... for example, there's a chair among the prefabs that come with the editor. You know how big a chair is supposed to be, and you know how big other things need to be in comparison. So you can take the chair as a kind of scale. If you have the chair in your room, getting a desk to have a reasonable size isn't difficult at all.
What I mean with taking texture size as an orientation is this: The editor shows you the size of a tecture in pixels. Now if you look at a door texture and see that it's x pixels high, just make a doorway x units high as well. This makes keeping proportions a lot easier.
I never used any other reference than what I mentioned above when I played around with Hammer, but in my maps everything was perfectly sized and well-proportioned.
Roses are #FF0000, violets are #0000FF // all my base, are belong to you.
