Would You Book an Obstructed View Cruise Cabin?

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides a tour and review of an obstructed view balcony cabin located on the Carnival Spirit. The video begins with an assessment of the room amenities, noting that each bed includes a dedicated lamp with a USB charger and that the cabin offers ample storage space. The creator mentions a cooler located under the vanity and observes that rooms on older ships often feel more spacious. While the bathroom is described as fine, the creator expresses a dislike for the shower curtain and notes that the decor appears dated. A lack of electrical outlets is also highlighted as a factor requiring travelers to bring an extension cord. The primary focus of the video is the balcony obstruction, which the creator describes as particularly significant. The creator advises viewers to carefully check the level of obstruction before booking, as better views are often available for a similar price. Although the creator received the cruise through a free casino offer, they suggest that those paying full price should be cautious of severe obstructions. The video concludes with a view of the Space Needle through the obstructed balcony.

Creator's Key Takeaways
When booking an obstructed view balcony, it's important to actually check out the obstruction because they're not all created equal.
And this one was particularly bad, and I'll show you in a moment. But otherwise, this was a pretty good room.
I don't care. I'm on a cruise.
Now, this was a free casino offer, so I'm certainly not complaining, but it's just good to know for those of you paying full price.
