Cabin Review

We had cabin #6107. I was very nervous about having an inside cabin with no window. As it turns out, yes, they are small but we settled into the space and did very well.. I was pleased to see the large mural covering the wall showing two hills and the ocean covering the wall at the end of the room BUT the thing I was most pleased about was the shower...It was roomy with a slider door, not a curtain. Our friends paid more for an outer cabin with window and their shower had a curtain and very little space plus some upper berths that were folded up. I think we got the better deal.

The 6th level is a very quiet one with little traffic and you don't hear the elevator noise at all.

About the cabins and what we did that make our cruise better:

1. After reading a review that talked about odors in the cabin, I threw in a Renuzit Odor Neutralizer to put in our cabin which ended up having no odors but I was happy to put it into the bathroom anyway.

2. I took several hangers to supplement the closet allotment.

3. There is one plug socket 110 and one 220. I took a multi-plug adaptor (see photo) and a European adaptor so we ended up having 4 possibilities for our American plug-ins instead of just one. If you have a CPAP, take an extension cord as the plug is across the room.

4. Don't worry that when you enter your room it seems hot and the air conditioning doesn't seem to work. Once you get underway for a few hours the AC will kick in. Halfway through the first night we found ourselves diving under the covers.

5. Yes, you can not put TP into the toilet...they have a little pedal operated waste-can which which they empty throughout the day. It never seemed to be a problem.

6. There are three little drawers and also two littler drawers inside the closet for storage. There are also 2 shelves in the closet. You get one stool to sit on...no chairs. I used my standing up suitcase wedged between the bed and the wall for a nightstand on the far side of the bed. There is also a 4 inch shelf all along the wall above the beds that was good for placing glasses, small items...the push-on nightlight I took along for reading and maneuvering in the middle of the night...

7. There are tissues and glasses and a soap dispenser in the bathroom...a soap and a shampoo dispenser in the shower. Two giant towels and two small towels on the bars.
