Update cabin 8039 was directly opposite the pool pump room and was terribly noisy inside our cabin from the hum opposite, overhead in the ceiling you could hear a periodic whooshing and hum from this pump room there was no escape on the balcony either as there was some kind of loud humming noise maybe an extractor for the pump room, we gave up trying to work it out.. Avoid 8039 on the Queen Victoria unless you can endure a noisy cabin with no escape. However the ship and trip and staff were all fabulous and we had an amazing time.
