Cabin: Interior Stateroom

We chose this cruise as a way to experience an inside cabin - we had always had a balcony before, but seeing all of the great offers available for insides we thought a two night break would be the ideal way to give it a go, and if we didn't like it then there was no great loss.

The cabin was spacious and well appointed with shower room. I hear gripes of people who don't like shower curtains as they can stick to you whilst showering - my tip here would be to take some magnets and stick the curtain to the edge of the cubicle. Problem solved. My only gripe with the cabin would be that with it being an inside it perhaps would be beneficial to show the view from the bridge or other webcam on a tv channel so that it's possible to see the weather.

Embarkation was very quick - we got the train from Birmingham to Southampton and enjoyed a champagne picnic on the way. A short transfer to the Mayflower terminal (which cost £4.00) and we were in the queue to board.

A bit too noisy, close to the front so felt some movement

Southampton isn't the nicest of towns
