Sail Date: Nov 2010
Cabin: Family Oceanview Stateroom
Traveled with children

Let me begin by saying that getting to and from Cape Liberty was a piece of cake. We arrived the night before and stayed about 20 minutes from the Pier. On the day of departure we arrived, dropped our bags at the terminal, parked the car and checked in. Check in took a matter of minutes and we waited for about 30 minutes to be let on board.

Our stateroom was wonderful with plenty of room for 4 children and 2 adults. This was our first experience in an oceanview and we were pleasantly surprised at how comfortable we were. The Family Oceanview rooms are over-sized with plenty of walking room when the couch is turned into a bed. The small bunk bed room was perfect for our older two children. There was plenty of storage and we had no issue storing 8 suitcases under the beds.

Our stateroom attendant, Alex, was wonderful. He went above and beyond on more than on occasion. Beds were comfortable although the pillows weren't the best. I probably should have asked for new ones but I never remembered until we were ready for bed and Alex was gone.
