Would You Book This Same Cabin Again?
Absolutely! It's a great cabin.
Noise In Cabin
A little noise in the cabin -- you didn't notice it if you were not paying attention
This cabin is below the LIDO deck therefore, there is quite a bit of noise during clean up by Crew. I.e. moving of tables/chairs etc... very loud and annoying but only for about 1/2 hour to one hour. If you turn in very early it will wake you. Otherwise; not a huge issue. I would still book it again just because it is very comfortable with the extra "side" space where we put our luggage during the entire cruise.
Cabin Odor
No noticable Odors
Temperature Control in Cabin
The temperature controls were VERY effective and you could easily maintain temperature
Best controls in a cabin from all our cruises!
WiFi Signal Strength in Cabin 8201
Have you seen what the cruise line charges for WiFi? I can't afford that... (I didn't test it...)
Lighting
The lighting is exceptional - the cabin was very thoughfully lit.
Bathroom Condition
Spotless. Everything is in top shape and feels very clean
View From The Cabin
Very good view
The only issue I encountered on this cabin was that the balcony is not suitable for sunbathing. I secured this cabin for this reason after speaking to a Carnival rep who advised sun would filter in. I am a very conservative person and choose to not sunbathe on deck; therefore, the choosing of balcony cabins is priority. This one will not let any sunshine in at all! So, if you like to sunbathe/tan it will not happen. You will need to go to public decks.
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
Good. Appropriately sized, flat-panel TV and Ipod dock
Lounging Space
Very Good. Chair or a couch with a coffee or side table
Your Comments & Observations (OPTIONAL QUESTION)
Overall, this is a great cabin. Unless; as I stated on previous comment; you want the balcony solely to sunbathe. Then you may not want to choose this cabin as very little; to no sun actually comes on the balcony. However, the location was perfect; the layout was great; and space was maximum. I wish all cabins had the extra space that this cabin had. It made moving around so much more comfortable.
DeckPlanGenius Review Authenticity Statement
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.
