Overall Room Condition Impressions
The cabin is beginning to look "tired". But, it still appeared to be clean
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
You could hear a good deal of noise, it was mostly tolerable
This cabin was very noise in port when the bow thrusters were being used. Also the noise of the anchor woke us up. Mostly though this cabin was very quiet due to it being so far from main circulation spaces and restaurants/ entertainment venues.
Cabin Odor
No noticable Odors
Temperature Control in Cabin
The temperature controls were VERY effective and you could easily maintain temperature
WiFi Signal Strength in Cabin 3005
Have you seen what the cruise line charges for WiFi? I can't afford that... (I didn't test it...)
Lighting
The lighting was good -- nothing extraordinary
Bathroom Condition
Spotless. Everything is in top shape and feels very clean
View From The Cabin
The view was partially obstructed
This cabin has two portholes. The porthole apertures are very deep and because of the space behind the bedhead due to the forward cabin location you had to bend down and look straight through the windows to get a good view.
Drawers, Clothes and Luggage Storage
Good, but, I could have used a bit more storage space
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)
Good sized cabin though I've been in bigger. Overall the layout was good. Storage was plentiful but not great for our numerous larger suitcases (we were travelling for a month and over winter/summer. . bathrooms were great..recently refurbished and very clean. None of the drawers on offer worked very well..all the runners had deteriorated and it was very frustrating to use them on a daily basis. The curtain which was supposed to block off the bedroom from the sitting area was stowed above the wardrobe for some reason. Main part of the cabin could do with a redesign! Lighting was great. TV was great. Desk area and lounge area great. Beds were super comfy. There's been numerous discussions on other sites about the size of this cabin in comparison to others on the same level/ price range. On deck plans it looks much bigger and overall it is but its not useable space. There is an extra 3 foot of space behind the bedhead which is handy maybe for a kids play area or storing suitcases at best. Don't be fooled. The cabin is the same size as the others! I would prefer to have the window directly behind the bedhead to get better views!
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.
