Cabin: Mid-Ship Balcony

We sailed on this ship on Western Med and it is the first time I have done Freestyle cruising. I was looking forward to the experience and after reading all the reviews was really expecting something extraordinary.

The ship itself was disappointing, the stateroom despite being a three berth was very small and although there were only two of us we found it very small. If one of us was sat at the hairdryer the other person was trapped at one end of the cabin with no room to move around. The washbasin was in the cabin and not the bathroom - how strange? The glass doors to the toilet and shower are very weird - good job there is a curtain you can pull across to shut them off but a couple of times we were nearly caught drying ourselves off after showering by the cabin steward knocking on door as there is nowhere to dry yourself other than by the cabin door.

The layout of the ship was most peculiar - I have never spent all week trying to work out what was on what deck and even which direction I was going to try and work out where I wanted to be.
