Thanks. I am wondering if "quite a bit" brings any negative sense in the meaning of this phrase?

Yes, but it's stated quite ineptly, so I'd be equally perplexed. It's about as lukewarm as you can get without being insulting.

I don't think it was meant negatively. After all, the person could just have said nothing.
