Cabin Review

We found our BX category cabin (balcony) to be smaller than most. The cabin space was further exacerbated by a king size bed; a queen would be preferable for us. The temperature was easily controlled in cabin, but there was noticeable variance at any temperature setting. There was sufficient storage space for our 3 week trip. The shower had ample space, with a wonderful shower head and controls that operated magnificently. The lavatory area was minuscule, with an inadequate ventilation system. The cabin and linens were always clean and fresh smelling. The Plexiglas balcony parathions needed cleaning. The room was well stocked. The bed comfortably firm. A temporary toiletry bag was offered when one of our luggage pieces had a late arrival. The cabin steward, Kiran Rane, was superb – unlikely due to the extra $2.00 per day in tips we provided. He would never take the money unless one left him a specific note to do so! His friendly demeanor, towel art, clean linens, vacuumed floor and never empty ice bucket was much appreciated.
