Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Our cabin was very comfortable but we could not open the window, ever and the safe was locked when we arrived onboard and remained so till Friday before departure in spite of an earlier request to have it attended to. The window shade came off it's track and was damaged. The room was always immaculate and we were very satisfied with the amenities provided though were unaware that we would be charged for bottled water.
