First attempt at a formal review here, so please be nice! :)
We flew into IAH from CO on the morning of our cruise. We were able to move through the embarkation process quickly due to my injured ankle. We were on board in 25 minutes from when we arrived at the pier.
Day 1 (Galveston):
1056, upper level balcony right by the elevators. Even though we were close to the forward elevators, we did not get an unusual amount of noise from the public areas. The room seemed like more than enough (probably because there were 2 of us and we usually travel with 5). The balcony was good! The TV is still on old style (no flat screen) and the color taste in the bathroom wasn't that great. The only issue I saw was the reading lights on the wall had come out of their mounts, but were easily popped back into place. This happened a few times during the trip. I would recommend this room to others!
