From Wiki: 'At 785ft (250m) long, 20ft. shorter than the Hindenburg, she and her twin sister, USS Macon (ZRS-5), were amongst the biggest flying objects in the world. Although the Hindenburg was bigger, the two airships still hold the world record for biggest helium-filled airships.'
So it was smaller than the Hindenburg, and could only carry a fraction of the Hindenburg's payload because it was helium rather than hydrogen-filled. Still impressive though.
