Past Cruise Experience:My First Cruise
Overall Room Condition Impressions
There is a little bit of wear and tear, but, it is in generally good shape
Would You Book This Same Cabin Again?
Its Not a Bad Cabin -- I would be open to trying a different cabin, however.
Noise In Cabin
A little noise in the cabin -- you didn't notice it if you were not paying attention
No noise whatsoever from neighbouring cabins and very little from the corridor. Occasional noise from outside the ship when tenders were being dropped but I gather this was something everyone heard at the time. No really an issue.
Cabin Odor
No noticable Odors
Temperature Control in Cabin
The temperature controls were VERY effective and you could easily maintain temperature
Temperature was generally good, however, there were a couple of occasions when I woke up shivering during the night and a couple of occasions when it blew warm air, but generally ok and there was no need to adjust on a regular basis.
WiFi Signal Strength in Cabin 1109
The WiFi signal strength was OK
Lighting
The lighting was good -- nothing extraordinary
The lighting in the bathroom was terrific. The lighting in the cabin was ok with bed-lights as well as lights on the ceiling and in the hallway.
Bathroom Condition
There is a little bit of wear and tear on the bathroom, but, it didn't feel dirty
View From The Cabin
Very good view
This cabin has a window (not a veranda) so the view was always going to be limited. The window was bigger than a porthole and let in some good light as well as allowing a view. You could not really take photos through the window, however, because of salt spray and the fact that the window is recessed somewhat requiring quite a reach to get up close. It was as I expected from a cabin in this price range and was fine for my needs.
Drawers, Clothes and Luggage Storage
Excellent. I was able to find a place for everything in the drawers and closet. I didn't have to leave anything in my suitcase
Technology, Comfort & Convenience
Needs serious improvement. Undersized flat panel TV and no iPod dock
Lounging Space
Very Good. Chair or a couch with a coffee or side table
Your Comments & Observations (OPTIONAL QUESTION)
I was very happy with this cabin. It was close to the lifts that go up to the Vista dining room which was very convenient. There was no noticeable noise from the lifts however as they are located in a central position separate from the accommodation corridor. It's quite a walk to get to the other end of the ship, but this is a problem for everyone - wherever you want to go is quite a walk! My room attendants were terrific and extremely cheery - they really made an effort. There was no noise from above nor from neighbouring cabins. My only real gripe was that the shower often flooded the floor and I had to mop it up after each shower (it's a shower over a small bathtub), however, towels were plentiful and always replaced when necessary. As for motion, there was no more in this cabin than was noticeable elsewhere on the ship. The gentle rocking each night was quite pleasant in fact! Overall I was very happy.

In a perfect world, everybody would be honest and there would be no "fake" reviews -- reviews for compensation, reviews by those with a business connection to the cruise line and even reviews by persons who never cruised in this cabin or on this ship! Use common sense and maintain a degree of skepticism with all reviews that you read.
