Our cabin was fine. It was what we expected. Balcony was great. It's a ship not a hotel. Space is always limited.  Read entire member review.

Ample room in the room and deck...bath room small but sufficient. Plenty of closet space. Mattresses might need to be replaced...needed a egg topper and better pillows. Room service on time every time. Room steward went above and beyond. Will never cruise without a balcony! Love sitting there with my coffee and breakfast and watching the world go bye!  Read entire member review.

We were 10156, back of the ship, 10th floor. Convenient to dining rooms, as they were aft, deck 6, and showroom was aft, deck 5. The room was fine, balcony was fine. Children's area was very nearby but we never heard any noise from them, pleasant surprise! No unusual noises at all.  Read entire member review.

Great Cruise by Witling
The cabin was tidy but functional. The room and bathroom were quiet. The balcony is only about 1 meter wide but still nice. The coffee maker, safe and flat screen TV were all nice touches. There should be a sign explaining that the in room water is $4.50 per bottle.  Read entire member review.
10656
Smaller room than most other ships, but still roomy enough for two people. Balconies are smaller in depth than most other ships, but again comfortable for two people who can live without lounge chairs. Room has no clock, no refrigerator, no bar soap and wall dispensers for shower soap and shampoo. At time the room did have a bit of a sewerage smell, but only on occasion.  Read entire member review.

Cabin 11000 on the Spirit was great. Good A/C, load of storage, great head divided into 3 areas. Shower big enough for a fat man. Not much noise from above. View off the balcony almost puts you on the bridge.  Read entire member review.

Forward cabin 11000: right under the Galaxy of the Stars. It was somewhat noisy between 10 pm and midnight so if you're not a night owl, this may not be the cabin for you. We liked having passengers on only one side of us and there was not much foot traffic down our wing of the ship. Being so high up and so far forward, we worried about getting sea sick but this was not a problem for us. We're 1st time cruisers so we don;t really know if sea states of 3 and 4 are unusually calm but that could have accounted for the lack of seasickness I suppose!  Read entire member review.

Just not our bag by mchall6252
Our cabin was directly below the night club - bad, bad idea unless you're going to be in the club until it closes. It was very, very noisy until the club closed, 2 am one morning! The cabin was ok, the balcony was good but we rarely used it because of the terrible weather. The bathroom was very good and very roomy. The closet was plenty large enough and there was enough storage for all our belongings. The cabin lacks AC outlets, but I brought a multi-outlet adapter and that worked out just fine. It was convenient enough to everything.  Read entire member review.
11008
The rooms are just way too small. Tiny bathroom that you can barely sit on the toilet and was very slow to flush. Shower was about the largest area in the bathroom. We used the couch bed and had to crawl over it to get to the balcony when it was in use. The walls are thin and will need your neighbors to work with you for quiet. The position of the room is great. The hall is quiet and only a short walk to the elevators and stairs. Only one flight up to most of the good things on the ship.  Read entire member review.
11008
Room 11008 has a really tiny toilet area! The room is so small that when the hide a bed is out at night, you have to crawl over it to get to the balcony. TV is as bad as all ships in shows and very out of date.(analog) The door to the next room will allow smoke and noise into the room. This can be a problem if you neighbors are not considerate.  Read entire member review.

Clean fresh carpeting in cabin, great sight lines to starboard side bridge wing for cast off, bathroom tiling coming apart with grout missing on shower floor and sticking up making it a cutting hazard to your feet.  Read entire member review.

Great bed, small balcony, good bathroom, closet and under-bed storage. Not much room for two adults to move around, though.  Read entire member review.

We had a balcony cabin on deck 11 which was very spacious, with adequate hanging and drawer space. The bathroom benefited from a door attached to both the toilet and shower which could be separated from the sink area. The balcony, although small was ample. The only drawback was that there was an overhanging area from the deck above which tended to block out some of the sun at certain times of the day. The hallway was always kept clear and there was no noise.  Read entire member review.

Great balcony with sliding door. Quiet location (pool area overhead - sometimes heard sliding of chairs from above). Musky Bathroom but lots of room with sliding doors for shower and toilet. Great room overall.  Read entire member review.

NCL Nearly Ruined Our Vacation by matthewthompson87
11070 - great location, but lots of noise from the deck above--pool chairs in the morning, thumping from running guests at night. Convenience trumps the noise in our opinion though. (Mold/mildew in the showers may be common on this ship too?)  Read entire member review.

Wonderful Spirit Cruise by coldinkansas
We had a balcony room and was very satisfied with it. It seemed a little dated and maybe could use a little cosmetic touch ups but overall we thought it was fine. The balcony had a little rust showing but nothing that a little TLC wouldn't take care of. Plenty of closet space and all of our luggage fit nicely under the bed. We could hear a little noise in the early AM from upstairs but nothing that bothered either of us.  Read entire member review.

The Spirit rocks by duncansdad
Small cabin and balcony only had room for two chairs and a very small table, think lamp table. No refrigerator and that was a disapointment. Under the buffet, very rarely had any noise from above, and even then, it was minimal.  Read entire member review.

Not for experienced cruisers by NoCarolinacruzer

If you have a third person in your room you cannot open the balcony door due to the third bed. You can hear EVERYTHING that goes on in the room next door. No fridge.  Read entire member review.
11516
Convenient to library (coffee) and elevators, but no hallway noise problems. Drapes need replacing and balcony door was heavy and hard to open. Was under the fitness center, but only once heard footsteps above. Loved the spacious and compartmentalized bathroom. Had plenty of storage space.  Read entire member review.

11520 NCL Spirit Just by the elevator forward just below the spa. Quiet location with a nice balcony.  Read entire member review.
11522
Our Cabin, stateroom 11522, was in a great location, right near the elevators and only one floor down from Raffles Food Court, pools, spa etc. The cabin itself was very congested for three people. The pull out sofa was EXTREMELY uncomfortable and you could feel the springs through the very thin mattress. In order to compensate for the uncomfortable pull out sofa, we placed the sofa pillow on top of the thin sofa mattress to sleep on. This allowed for much more comfortable sleeping. The queen sized bed in the room, on the other hand, was very comfortable. Closet space was very small. The bathroom was quite spacious compared to other cruises that I had been on. We had a very nice balcony that could sit 2 people comfortably.  Read entire member review.
11528
Cabin seemed smaller than other balcony staterooms on other ships.  Balcony was wide enough, but very shallow. Storage space doesn't look like a lot, but it was surprisingly good - plenty of room for luggage under the bed also.  Bathroom very small, but shower has sliding door as does the toilet. Furniture a bit worn out.  Bed incredibly hard and uncomfortable.  Cabin walls very thin and you can hear your neighbors pretty clearly.  Read entire member review.

Canada in October by Daltonian
Cabin 11538. Good storage, closet and under bed. Typical bathroom, crowded in need of maintenance (Shower cable coming apart, intermittent water service). Balcony is tiny, room for two chairs and tiny table (one coffee cup, not two). Cabin is directly below the treadmills in the fitness center with predictable throbbing noise. Select a cabin a little forward or aft of this one and still be close to the forward elevators.  Read entire member review.

Cabin 11560. we were very pleased with this cabin which was on the port side of the ship. Probably would prefer the starboard side in the future because of how this ship docks.  Read entire member review.

7 Day Boston to Quebec City by AgouraTraveler
11590, nice size for 2. Bathroom nice size, but musty-smelling entire week, with mildew on tile outside shower and under sink. Bathroom needs renovation. Excellent lighting in cabin with overhead lights and 2 reading lights. Also, great A/C control so one can precisely adjust temperature. Needs another 110 volt receptacle and a refrigerator. Safe in nice size closet. Balcony good for 2. Cannot hear shipboard announcements coming from speakers outside cabin in hallway. Being a Fall cruise, too cold for pool use on deck 12 above, only heard minimal banging of furniture topside at times. Music noise from above only heard a little, but this would be a problem on a Caribbean trip.  Read entire member review.

Honeymoon in the Med. by stagetek23
Stateroom 11592 review I felt the room was very nice...we had a balcony and it was well worth it. Though on deck 11 you do hear all of the kids running up on the pool deck sometimes. Our bathroom was larger than I thought. Though the tile in the shower really needed a deep clean and more attention needs to be taken behind the door to the shower there was mold growing in the grout and on the handle  Read entire member review.

Amazing trip ! by deborah p
Nice size, balcony a plus  Read entire member review.

We had a mid-ship balcony and were surprised/impressed by the size of the balcony. It made the whole cabin seem larger! The only negative was the jerk next door who left his balcony light on all nite and made it difficult to get to sleep.  Read entire member review.

Tiny balcony, bathroom layout good- cleanliness poor (mold/mildew in shower and floors). Nice closet space with adequate shelving for storage.
