I am a seasoned cruiser and I realize that people looking at the cruise critic may range from the novice to the more experienced, so to be fair I am going to be brutally honest and state it frankly, In one sentence, I was not impressed by the Eurodam in fact it was quite disappointing. If you read on you will see the ship has so many deficits that it is difficult for one to recommend this ship if you are looking for a cruise which will supply a relaxing vacation
The Cabins-Verandah Superior Ocean
The cabins are adequate if you keep the bed as a Queen, however if you need to split the beds as we did into two separate twin beds the rooms becomes extremely tight to maneuver around. For those who are sensitive to light as I am it is important to note that the curtains in the room are so thin they are almost sheer therefore the sunlight starts coming through very early in the morning.

Verandah rooms on the 5th deck views are obstructed, although HAL does not consider these obstructed view, they are, the lifeboats are on Deck 4 below and the lifeboats block a portion of the view when you looking out the sliding glass doors.. When you sit out on the verandah the lifeboats block about 2/3 of the view through the glass railing. .
They do not have enough Handicap rooms on this ship for a cruise line that caters to an older population. When we spoke with the Front desk they told us every cruise there are more requests for Handicap rooms from people with disabilities then they have rooms for on each cruise. While it is a nice touch they have tubs, in most of the cabins, they are not useful to an older person or one with a disability who really needs a shower.
