Review summary

This was my first time using a walker. It was clumbsy at best getting around. The cabin had no sofa and was equipped with bunkbeds. I found it exhausting to get around. The ships' layout was poor.

Sorry to hear you were disappointed with your cruise. Appreciate your comments. Work with a travel agent in the future to avoid cabin you don’t want.

That’s totally your fault not knowing you booked bunk beds. Do some pre cruise homework. Walkers and scooters are always in my way.

I use a walker too but only use it to help carry luggage on the ship. Much easier than pulling bags around. I use a cane on the ship cause I know the walker makes it harder to get around. Sometimes it's hard to get an elevator cause the walker won't fit with all the people in it and I would fit just having a cane.

You could have told your room attendant to put beds up and push bottom beds together.
