Creator's Key Takeaways

No matter what kind of cruise ship cabin you're staying in, whether it's a small tiny inside cabin or a giant balcony suite, there are things you should and shouldn't do while in your cabin

Cabin doors are heavy and they slam shut if you let them go, which creates a really loud thud sound

Don't let your door slam shut. One common theme you're going to find in this video is noise abatement

The only thing going down in the cruise bathroom toilet should be toilet paper and anything else that comes out of you
