Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

We had aft, our deck had water on it a few days and the glass panels where too dirty to see thru. Had to stand up to see a good view

Ship tip

Go to floors with staterooms all the way thru to be able to walk to front or back of ship to avoid smokey casino alcohol package was too expensive unless your an alcoholic, we didn't buy it. People complained about multiple times on our trip
