Additional details

Sail Date: Aug 2013

This is an old ship which has been adapted for wheelchair users in an appalling way.

Bedrooms are small and compact which has little space to accommodate a fold up wheelchair or small mobility scooter. We had our bed in a queen size set up which left little room to either side of the bed. There is loads of cupboard and draw space, a small TV, small fridge and tea making facilities. There a corner settee and table which two people could just about sit on. The shower room was basic and only one person could get into the room and to sit on the toilet the door had to at least part shut. The shower was accessible but I had to lean on one wall to maintain my balance when the ship was at sea.

The only way I could store my wheelchair and maintain some room in the cabin was remove the foot rests and store it by the cabin door. During the day there were two of us that let the wheelchairs in the lift area or folded up outside my door. Our cabin was not in a main thorough fare so this did not cause major problems.
