Cabin / Stateroom

I booked cabin with port holes with bunk beds however our beds 🛏 were separated both of them on the floor. Lots of room for two women sharing the cabin Impressive with our cabin and the visual viewing of the sea

Ship tip

Our cabin was on deck 1 so if you experience motion sickness I recommend to use anti-dizziness patches
