Creator's Key Takeaways

we've booked pretty much all of these and learned the hard way on these that you do not want to book any of these cabins you will definitely regret it

the room really stays so hot you have to keep you lose all the bonus of having a balcony room because you can't sit out on your balcony

if there's a big empty space on the ship map that's not a place that you really want to be across from because who knows what could making noise behind that wall

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Look up on the ship's deck plan where the gym is and don't get any rooms directly under that on the deck below it
✓Check where the placement is of your room in accordance with the theater to avoid noise
✓Avoid cabins in the AFT of the ship due to engine rumble
✓Don't get a cabin underneath the sports court or pool deck to avoid chair dragging noise
✓Book a northern facing room on transatlantic or transpacific cruises to avoid sun exposure
✓Avoid cabins on decks where people line up to get off the ship on port days
