Creator's Key Takeaways

we have never before stayed in an interior facing balcony cabin I don't know that we would ever do it again

the ship is amazing we wish we could spend another week on it it's been great

the sweet Sund deck is fantastic it's probably easily twice the size of any other sweet Sund deck area we've ever been in

the split bathroom one side is a toilet the other is a shower yeah the one have sink though which is pretty nice
