Creator's Key Takeaways

I've done this before and it's usually an obstructed view even though it's not categorized that way.

There's nothing worse than hearing that bass beat on late into the night when you're trying to sleep.

You will hear banging sounds from the waves crashing against the hall.

You will hear the annoying sound of scraping deck chairs late into the evening and very early in the morning.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Avoid balcony cabins on the lowest possible deck for balconies.
Do not book a cabin directly below or above a nightclub or lounge.
Avoid cabins near elevator complexes if you are sensitive to noise.
Do not book cabins at the very front of the ship on lower decks.
Avoid cabins directly below a pool deck.
