Thanks for review - we always look for cabins without drop down beds and adjoining doors. Sorry you ended up in one of those but glad you enjoyed your cruise.

Glad you had a good time on your first cruise. We were on the same sailing and the official number of people ill with the Norovirus turned out to be about 200 passengers and crew although people were spreading rumors of 500-600.
