Cabin Review

The cabin (outside with balcony) was large enough and in good condition and very clean. The bathroom had a shower (nice and powerful) but the bathroom on the whole was a tad on the small side, the shower area itself was quite large, but the space next to the basin and wc was a bit tight. There was a reasonable storage area next to the bathroom, with plenty of hangers (about 20) and room to store suitcases, etc. There was a large queen size bed, two bedside cabinets, a dressing table with a chair and small table (as well as the two seater sofa), so overall space was ok. There was a large flat screen tv, a safe, fridge, mini bar, tea and coffer facilities and a hair dryer. For some reason my UK shaver would not fit the shaver point? Luckily I had charged it and I had also brought a wet razor. The cabin was air conditioned (with variable temperature control in cabin).

The balcony had a slightly restricted view, being between two lifeboats, but we did have a view. The balcony timber handrail was starting to peel varnish. The balcony was only large enough for two (reclining) chairs and a small table, but although small, it was large enough (just). Our last balcony on Crown Princess had four chairs and a table and was about double the size of the one on Brittania. One negative, the large glass sliding balcony door was very stiff. I am 17 stone of idiot, and I could just about manage to pull it open myself, using some force on my part, but my (smaller) partner could not, it was just too heavy for her to move.
