Long lines to board even though I pre registered on computer. No one to direct you once on board. Confused as to where to go. As a solo traveler I opted for a studio cabin. However, a fellow passenger in the room next to me snored the entire trip. Our headboards were connected by a non-sound proof wall. It was as if he was in my room the entire vacation. I did not sleep. I spoke to guest relations - their reply-- get ear plugs. I was so insulted. The woman in the next opposite room had company on several nights, laughing, etc until 2am. I could not sleep. I was told they would try and change my room when we docked in Burmuda but there never followed up to tell that that was impossible. Instead of 4,000 on the ship, they had 4,500 and with bad weather most of the week we were all crammed inside. The closet doors in my studio moved from side to side and unless you held them they slammed. I constantly heard everyones closet doors closing and opening in surrounding rooms throughout the cruise which woke me all the time.

By the way, no more than 8 people ever showed up at the studio lounge. Only about a handful of single people on the ship.

I was never told that my not leaving a credit card or room card in the wall that the power would go off. When I found out I did not realize that my cell phone was never charging. Also the sheets were only changed maybe twice during the cruise as compared to hotels where they are changed everyday.

Cabin Review

Studio smaller than I expected. Sliding closet doors from all surrounding cabins kept me awake because they banged when opened and closed. Headboard from my cabin and cabin next door was connected and separated only by a thin wall. I had to deal with a man snoring all week in the next room so I lost a lot of sleep. Guest services told me to get ear plugs to solve the problem. Are they kidding? I paid a lot of money for my privacy and never it had. The studio lounge for solo travelers never had a crowd on any given night. Really a waste of space on the ship. Nothing was complimentary in the lounge except coffee and cookies. They only changed the sheets maybe twice on the entire trip and I had dust under my bed.Heard people in the narrow hallways all night. Good luck staying in these rooms.
