I relied so much on the comments of other member reviewers here, I promised myself I would do the same for future cruisers.

Yes, we were on the same ship that found out upon arriving back into port that someone gave birth on the ship & the newborn baby was discovered in the stateroom by a room steward- how awful! But.... even if the staff knew it they kept is so hush-hush.

My husband & I got away without the kids. We did have a minor glitch. We were greeted with industrial sized fan awaiting us in our extended balcony aft cabin. It turns out there was a water leak affecting ~2 feet of carpet right when you entered the room. The room steward was extremely good with it. He arranged to have the carpet cleaned when we were at port one day. We were offered to move to another balcony but we declined it due to the other location (off lido deck right by an elevator). We were compensated 30% room difference up until the offer (for total of 2 days). According to the purser's desk that is the most they could do on the ship & suggested that I contact guest services when we arrived home (which I did).

Aside from the water leak. We did enjoy the extra space in the cabin itself. The balcony was a bit bigger. There were 2 chairs & a deck lounger.
