I'm just the opposite. I'm 6'-2" and just finished building up a 57cm frame for a bike I already have in 61cm. The 61cm feels Okay but still a little cramped; the 57cm has the seatposts and stem at the height limits and still feels way too small.
But I agree with what everyone is saying; there is no right/wrong here and each person has different dimensions and different preferences.
