(With comments on problems) – Yes Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - No Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – 9318 is in the center of the hump, and there is an unobstructed view forward and aft. Because of the in-hull design of the Voyager's balconies, you do have to lean out a bit to see where you're going or where you've been. There is a view straight out when seated. Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - The balcony seemed slightly deeper than others we've had. Was wind a problem? - There was no wind at all! If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - The "refrigerator" really didn't cool at all. Any other comments? - Great location with easy access to other parts of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(With comments on problems) – Yes Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - Yes...we never knew there was anybody there unless we both happened to be on the balcony at the same time. Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – We loved the view from the forward part of the hump. We didn't have a view aft because of the location of the cabin. Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - Normal, but slightly angled due to the hump. Was wind a problem? - No If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - None!

(With comments on problems) – Yes Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - No Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – 1340 is a few cabins behind the hump, and there is only a view aft. You cannot see the bridge or the bow from this balcony. There is a view straight out when seated. Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - The balcony was a normal size for this ship. The balconies on the Voyager are very private. Was wind a problem? - There was no wind at all! If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - It wasn't 9318, which we had been looking forward to for a year, but gave up to save $1,300! Any other comments? - Great location near the aft stairs and elevators with easy access to other parts of the ship. We were a bit apprehensive about being under the Windjammer, but this cabin is directly beneath Portofino and it was very quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nellydean Posted June 26, 2010 #31 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Ship - Brilliance of the Seas Deck - 9 Stateroom # - 9076 Stateroom Category – D1 Superior balcony stateroom Starboard or Port Side - Port (on the left :)) Quiet Stateroom? (With comments on problems) – No! The first few nights, we had horrendous noise from the Concierge lounge above, not so much from passengers, but from the cleaners, who dragged furniture around in the middle of the night to hoover up. It was terrible, and if it wasn't for the ship being full, wewould have asked to move but, thankfully, it quietened down after that. This was a problem some cruice critic members had experienced but, equally, others said it had not been a problem for them. Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - Don't think so Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – This cabin is the first on the hump, so the balcony is at a slight angle, but the views were fine (you get to look forward and down the length of the ship towards the front, but nothing towards the back, which is blocked by the cabin to the left (centre hump). Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - Bigger (not as deep as the hump next door, but wider ) Was wind a problem? - Only when I had the onions with salad! If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - No. On the contrary, it was a bit bigger than the D1 we had on the Liberty. It had a double sofa, which was only big enough for our teenage son, and we thought our grown up daughter would have to have the Pullman above our bed, but when we arrived, the Pullman came out over the sofa, which was great (although the air con blew in her face a bit) Any other comments? - The shower curtain was rubbish and kept sticking to our legs, much prefer the perspex pull-to doors of the Liberty and other newer ships. But the location of the cabin - right by the library and the daily sudoku - was great, with the lifts right there and the dining room just a hop skip and a jump away. If it wasn't for the fact we are going to try a different line next time, I would not have divulged this information about 'my' cabin, so, there you go, enjoy ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(With comments on problems) – We did have noise issues but not from people. We had our son with us and he was using the bunk but the noise from the metal banging was so bad we had to put his mattress on the floor and secure the bunks to get any sleep. The cabin steward was very apologetic and seemed embarrassed, I think he was quite aware this was an ongoing problem. It did get better with padding etc after a couple of days so our son was able to sleep. The ship was full and I didn't want to cause a fuss. There was also intermittent mechanical banging from below. Not enough to disturb but noticable. I wouldn't book a cabin again over unknown space. Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - no Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – N/A Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - N/A Was wind a problem? - N/A If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - Just the noise as above. Any other comments? - It would have been great not to have issues with the bunks and the banging below but it wasn't enough to spoil our cruise. Cabin location was convenient to stairs and the climb from 2 to the top decks was great exercise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was wind a problem? - No. If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - No. Any specific problems with this cabin? - This cabin did not have a full size closet at the end.

Also great view of the S side wing bridge. Was wind a problem? - No If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - N/A Any specific problems with this cabin? - No Any other comments? - Huge cabin with an electric door opener and massive bathroom. Have no clue how lucked into it, but glad we did. Being accessible it's not available for everyone, but should you have the need for an access cabin you can not go wrong.

(With comments on problems) – Eerily quiet. Hardly any traffic at all. Never saw anyone in the hallways but the cleaning staff and even they were like ghosts. There was a bit of rumbling the first night, but we were going through a bad storm, so it could have been from that. Otherwise, smooth as silk. Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - I don't believe it was. Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – No balcony, inside cabin. Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - No balcony, inside cabin. Was wind a problem? - Not applicable, inside cabin. If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? - Not applicable, inside cabin. Any specific problems with this cabin? - None whatsoever. Any other comments? - This is a disabled-access cabin, so it was quite spacious and had plenty of room for a wheelchair and a walker. Cabin is near the elevators so is very accessible for those who need the accommodations. The room is VERY dark when the lights are off, may disorient those who need a small light source to sleep. I'd recommend taking along a small nightlight or something to help you see when you wake up - you will not know what time of the day it is because it's pitch-black day or night. No complaints, however, the room is lovely and quite accessible to the disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal or oversized for class? - Normal Was wind a problem? - If it was windy at sea, it was windy on the balcony, though not as bad as on the open deck (the jogging track for instance). But it was not a problem, was never worried about stuff blowing away on the balcony Any specific problems with this cabin? - No Any other comments? - We found the port side to offer very nice views coming into port in the Mexican Riviera, particularly nice while anchored in Cabo. Nice to have shower doors as opposed to curtains, though shower is still too small to bend over and pick up something, or touch your toes in...More than ample storage and closet space. Privacy curtain between bed and sofa a nice touch, though we didn't make use of it. Good size fridge if you take out their stocked beverages, also safe was convenient and easy to use.

(With comments on problems) – Very Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? - No Any specific problems with this cabin? - No problems Any other comments? The obstructed views in this category aren't that bad EXCEPT FOR THIS ROOM. I was able to see the views from many other cabins because I was doing a B2B and on turnaround day, I was the only passenger onboard and I was allowed to check out my new room. All of the doors were open. I don't really care about the view - I picked this room because my sister was joining me so we wanted to move into a bigger room from what I was in before (see posting right above). If you care about the view, don't take 9024. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
