suec12 Posted October 26, 2009 #1 Share Posted October 26, 2009 I am thinking about booking one of these cabins on an upcoming cruise - I understand that the are the obstrcted view in these cabins is minimal but I see they are adjacent to stairs and elevators. Will there be alot of noise from passerbys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CintiPam Posted October 26, 2009 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2009 No, I never heard any noise from outside my door. (We were in 6033 for our first Oceania cruise a year ago.) In fact, one afternoon when I returned to the cabin, there was a passenger talking on his cell phone by the cabin door, and after I entered the cabin, I could not even hear him although he was standing right next to the door. A great location, very little obstruction, but very small room. (We had them remove the small round glass table because it simply got in our way.)

jollyjones Posted October 27, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I can confirm Cintipam's info - the rooms are perfectly quiet with plenty of view of the sky (I was in 6033) but small - the glass table takes up what little open space there is in the cabin and is no use for sitting at. I was sailing solo so I kept the table for dumping stuff but I think you wouldn't want it with a couple in the room. Unfortunately, you can really only sit at the desk (one person) or on the bed. On the other hand, these rooms are usually a good price and the proximity to the stairs so that you can just run down one flight and be out on the biggest balcony of the ship watching the sun come up ... or down ... or whatever ... is a great asset; on a port-intensive cruise I would recommend these rooms.

aaaaa Posted June 25, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Would these cabins be noisy from the casino below? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We stayed in 6035, one upon a time, and never heard a thing from below or above The Casino itself isn't noisy, or crowded, so none of that would be a concern.

CintiPam Posted June 26, 2019 #6 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) We have stayed in both 6033 and 6030. You really are not above the casino in those two cabins but rather above the hall between the elevators and the stairs. We never heard any noise from below. Just be prepared for very little cabin room. We spent all our leisure time onboard elsewhere. Edited June 26, 2019 by CintiPam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FetaCheese Posted July 1, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) had cabin #6030 on Insignia. Cabin is small, yes, but found it adequate. Appreciated the large closets, with plenty of room in front of them for 2 people to get ready at same time. originally booked a GTY inside, and they put us in #6030. It was our 1st O cruise, and was pleasantly surprised that it was really not obstructed -- what I would call a small "commander's lifeboat" takes up very little space -- of the very large rectangular window. Did not hear any noise. Edited July 1, 2019 by FetaCheese Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CintiPam Posted July 1, 2019 #8 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Yes, there is good light and little obstruction, just the davit holding the small boat (a zodiac on Nautical and Regatta); the boat is below window level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaaaa Posted September 13, 2023 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Is the window in these obstructed-view cabins full-size, or is it a porthole? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
