Background Information: This cruise was planned about a year in advance. I chose HAL since it was a long time I cruised with them.
Hotel Information:
I made reservations at the Hyatt Convention Center 17th St. When I got there I was happy about the location as it was near an area I was familiar with, near the cruiseport, malls and restaurants. In short a nice location for someone with feet as transportation.
I had cabin 6104 on the Upper Verandah Deck 6 on the port side. This was 5 cabins from the rear elevators and 10 cabins from the center elevators. It was convenient as my evening meals were taken in the Vista Dining Room on Deck 3 and in the morning the Lido Restaurant on Deck 9 for breakfast, both using the rear elevators. I used the middle elevators for the Pursers Office or when going ashore. The cabin itself was very roomy for 1 person and could accomodate 3-4 people.
