Overall:

This trip was a solid 'B' rating for me. I've cruised before on NCL (1 time) and RC (4 times) out of Miami and the Breakaway had a lot going for it. There were a few things I think could use some improvement, but I don't think it is as bad as the negative reviews lead you to believe (and I have read them all).

Staterooms:

Cabin Review

Was really impressed with the staterooms. Had a standard balcony room and thought it was really well-designed, in our room the couch was next to the balcony and I think it made the room feel even more spacious. There was TONS of storage for 2 people- way more than we used. Two big drawers under the couch, shelves and hanging room in the closet, storage in the vanity and in the bathroom. You could ask for more hangers if you needed them. The bed was comfortable, and while the balcony was a little small, it was fine for just sitting out there for 2 people. The bathrooms were a major improvement over all other ships I have been on- really big! Not bumping into everything in the bathroom was a major plus on this ship. We felt some slight ship motion on the 13th deck (aft, port side) especially in the rougher weather you can get with this itinerary but nothing major. We did hear some noises in the room at night that I believe was our neighbors flushing their toilet, but overall room noise was pretty minimal. The location behind the aft stairs/elevator lead to only minimal hallway noise which was nice. Once or twice we heard bass from Spics H20 at night but it wasn't bad and was easy to ignore, even for light sleepers. Deck 13 was a good location for walking up to 15/16 or down to 6/7.
