I'll mix that bad and the good together in chronological order.

Pre-Cruise Bad: Cruise arrangements made for family of 8 including parents that were 93+. 4 rooms in all that "were real close together". Well I didn't verify, but real close is not real close. 40x5, 41x5, 45x5 and 47x5 sounded close. Unfortunately, because we were scattered on both sides of the ship, my parents had a great deal of difficulty finding their room. They always seemed to go to the wrong side. (I should have verified the assignments earlier when changes could have been made. But I made them 8 months in advance, they should have known too, as they knew the ages that were involved.)

StateRooms - Poor: Talk about small rooms, the only place to store the waste paper basket was under the legs of the desk chair. It was very difficult to walk beside the (double) bed. I suggest separate single beds, for more space to walk. See more below.

Cabin Review

Little drawer and shelf space, but this is an old, small ship. It was very difficlt to get between the furniture and the bed to get into it. While my luggage has always stored under the bed, they did not fit this time, and occupied the limited walk space between the wall and the bed.
