Creator's Key Takeaways

I had an interior cabin and it was awesome.

One of the things that really surprised me about the cabin was how comfortable the bed was.

I really thought that the service in the room was great.

Overall though, I found that the interior cabin was quiet and restful.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a USB charging station with multiple ports to compensate for limited outlets.
Consider bringing a small air freshener for the bathroom if traveling with a companion.
Verify ship information from the daily newsletter or panels, as the wake show can be inaccurate.
Use the upper decks for scenic views instead of staying in the cabin.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Lack of seating spaceThe cabin is compact; only the bed and desk chair are available, so it's fine for solo travelers but tight for groups.
Darkness due to no natural lightThe interior cabin is ideal for light-sensitive sleepers, especially during Alaskan summer with long daylight hours.
Limited storage or dated decorThere is plenty of storage under the bed and in cabinets; the decor is dated but well-maintained.

Thinking about booking an Alaska cruise on the Ruby Princess? I spent 22 nights in an interior cabin (Aloha Deck, Cabin 344) during a summer sailing to Alaska and here’s what it was really like — the layout, the comfort, the quirks, and why I think this cozy, budget-friendly cabin could be perfect for your next cruise too. I’ll walk you through the storage space, bathroom setup, bed comfort, TV features, and even the surprising perks of not having a balcony. (Spoiler: I got way better views by heading outside!) Access is via the Medallion — no key card needed. I used this Medallion wristband instead of the default lanyard, and it worked perfectly throughout the trip. https://amzn.to/48FRfF8 Who is the interior cabin good for? Solo travelers, budget cruisers, or light sleepers who want total blackout sleeping conditions during Alaska’s midnight sun. I’ve got a full series coming from this 22-day Alaska cruise — excursions, dining, ship tours, and more. Subscribe to catch the rest! Got questions about the Ruby Princess or Alaska itineraries?
