First off let me say this was our first cruise.
We arrived in New Orleans the day before our cruise and was able to see the sights there.
We arrived at our parking garage on Sunday morning and were delivered to the Cruise terminal around 12:30pm.
We had a balcony room and was very satisfied with it. It seemed a little dated and maybe could use a little cosmetic touch ups but overall we thought it was fine. The balcony had a little rust showing but nothing that a little TLC wouldn't take care of. Plenty of closet space and all of our luggage fit nicely under the bed. We could hear a little noise in the early AM from upstairs but nothing that bothered either of us.
