Sail Date: Jan 2012
Cabin: Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Before heading off to the Allure for our vacation on January 22/12, I scoured these pages and have to thank everyone for all of their tips. Reading the reviews became a nightly habit as I'd settle back in my chair for the latest exciting news and views - I'd hate to think if I hadn't I might have missed the famous roast beef sandwich!

Embarkation: Unbelievable how quick and easy this went. Our best ever. Got to the port just after 11:00 a.m. and we were on the ship in about 15 minutes. Of course we went straight to the Park Cafe for a roast beef sandwich. It was already crowded.

Room: Had a balcony cabin on Deck 6. We liked the proximity to the Boardwalk, just had to walk down the hall (a long way though since we were second from the end) and around the corner and there it was. Didn't have any noise issues in the room. Only negative was the storage which we found lacking and a bit awkward. Even the Navigator's inside cabin a week later had more storage. It was the first time we've had the bed by the sliding glass doors and I, although it seems I might be in the minority here, prefer the "living" area there since it seems to open up the room more and expand the view out the glass doors. I actually found the balcony a waste on this cruise (first time I've ever said that!!) because it was such a novelty to sit in the middle of the ship (Central Park or Boardwalk) and be outside.

Very long walk back down hall since it's second from the end of the ship - good if you want the exercise! No noise issues.
