Additional details

Sail Date: Oct 2009
Cabin: Large Ocean View Stateroom

The Statroom: we went super cheap on the room - a guaranteed, oceanview category I and booked thru Alaska Airlines for the cheapest deal i had found over a months' fare watching online - booked 2-3 wks in advance of cruise which garnered the best rate for sure.

Stateroom was super quiet - only TWICE did i hear any sounds from people at all - the only sounds was the creaking of the ship & the hum of the engine. Being on the 3rd deck with no balcony or window to open, i thought i would tire of a long walk to the AFT section but did not - and the quietness was worth it as it seems that cabins closer to elevators would have lots of sounds thru the doors. Also, i thought an AFT cabin would make me seasick but it didn't.

The Staff: Terrific! Not once did we encounter any problems and every staff person was fabulous. Other than seeming to be low-staffed at the main help desk - we never had an issue.

Cabin Review

Large Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin I

Little traffic outside our cabin made it super quiet! Shower is small - vinyl curtain - not nice but bathroom was an ok size. Lots of closet/drawer space. TV had Turner Classic Movies, TNT & E networks plus several ESPN's and all the networks seemed to provide taped shows - not "live" real tv as there were very few commercials and lots of movies repeated over & over. Beds were nice, lighting was good too.
