When we first entered our room, we went out to the balcony. There were toenail clippings on the floor. The balcony floor was kind of like gravel with some rust. It wasn't a smooth surface that was painted or textured. The cabin itself was dusty and someone had left stickers from their clothing tags on the walls.

There are only soap dispensers in the bathroom for hand soap, shampoo and shower gel. If you like to use a bar of soap, bring one. The gift shop sells them for $3. If you like conditioner, bring it or buy it on board for $12.99 (pantene).

The worst part of the cruise, for us, was our cabin location. Cabin 11682 was across from the aft elevators and stairway. It was very noisy, not only because of loud people but there was a guy that vacuumed outside our door at 2:30 am on more than one morning. Our cabin was just outside the salon, which doesn't seem like a loud place. The fitness center was upstairs from the salon so maybe the heavy feet were on their way to the gym or the buffet. We were assigned the cabin after booking over the phone so we didn't have the luxury of choice.

Cabin Review

We booked a mini suite for our family of four (2 adults, a 6 yr old and a 4 yr old). The size of the room was better than the regular balcony room that another couple in our party had. The bathroom in our room was good size for a cruise ship bathroom. There was a tub/shower with a pull out that provided some privacy from the sink area. The toilet area also had the pull out divider. The room had two twin beds pulled together and a sofa that pulled out for our daughters. Our 4 year old said it was "hard as a rock" but she had no trouble sleeping. There is a curtain that can be drawn between the sofa and the bed for privacy.
