momof2cruiser Posted March 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 6, 2014 We booked cabin 6232 for next year! It is one of the rooms with a huge balcony! Can anyone tell me about the room? Share photos? Also, was there noise due to the elevators being close? Is there anything bad that I need to know about the location? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heatherbean Posted March 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I've been in 7258 on both my cruises on the Pride. They have the same type of balcony.

vacruizer Posted March 7, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Thank you for trying! Do either of you recall "noise" from a work room next door? I've had 7258 upstairs. Balcony is amazing!!! Never heard any noise in the room, but could faintly hear an ice machine dropping ice every now and then while in the bathroom. It was barely noticeable. Enjoy the room!

heatherbean Posted March 7, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I still wasn't able to load pictures, but found a picture of 7258 from the Legend, which is identical to Pride and should be the same as 6232...post #4. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1388642 We had no issue with noise. We have 5236 on our next cruise, it also has the long balcony but it's not as wide. Happy Cruising!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAcruiser25 Posted March 7, 2014 #13 Share Posted March 7, 2014 We were on 4232 on the Pride which I think is similar. It was awesome. nice size balcony, regular cabin like OV or balcony. Seemed like too much furniture as usual but we stuck a table on balcony to give us more space. No elevator noise issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadextrem Posted March 7, 2014 #15 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Just had this room last week. The balcony is amazingly huge. We had two loungers,three chairs,and a side table. We could have fit more to be honest. The room was quiet. I never heard any noise from the elevators or the crew room next door. You do feel a lot of the ship vibration, but didn't bother us. Think of those old vibrating beds for a quarter.lol. Was so convenient to be right near the elevators/stairs. Only issue I noticed was that the balcony is a bit saggy in a few areas. I'm sure it'll be checked over during the upcoming drydock. I'd book this room again if it was available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the vibration during the entire trip? Also, was it as bad as it is at the very back of the ship in the MDR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TikkiTembo Posted March 8, 2014 #17 Share Posted March 8, 2014 We booked cabin 6232 for next year! It is one of the rooms with a huge balcony! Can anyone tell me about the room? Share photos? Also, was there noise due to the elevators being close? Is there anything bad that I need to know about the location? We stayed in that cabin twice last year. The pictures you see online are accurate. I usually travel with my family of four and we will continue to book this cabin EVERY time we travel on the Pride. The balcony had two lounge chairs that recline back, of course. And, three regular chairs (one had a reclining back) and a small table. As for noise, the elevator was not an issue at all. (This was one of my concerns before I booked.) However, this cabin is next to a crew area where they were washing big pots and pans. When we cruised in April, we heard some banging and clanging from that room. It kind of bothered my husband a bit but the rest of us were fine. But when we cruised in November, I didn't hear any noise at all from the crew area. Also my November trip was a Thanksgiving cruise so the ship was more crowded but we still heard no noise from the elevator. Another thing I like about this room is the location. For some reason we tend to eat in the MDR for brunch, afternoon tea and dinner almost daily. The elevator right near the MDR is the one that's right near 6232 so it's not a lot of traveling around the ship to get to dinner. Hope this helps.

Do you recall much vibration in that room? I know the Pride is known for it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TikkiTembo Posted March 9, 2014 #19 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Thank you! Do you recall much vibration in that room? I know the Pride is known for it..... I don't remember feeling too much vibration in the room. The weather was horrible for a part of my April cruise and lots of people, including crew, were sick with all the rockiness of the boat. It didn't bother us at all but none of us have issues with seasickness (at least we haven't in the past.) I'm so ready to book this cabin again.

momof2cruiser Posted April 14, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Was the view okay with the tender boats just below? Also, I know these group of cabins are slightly in an inlet...did that ruin the view? I am thinking that no matter what, the best view is when you are looking straight out!

cuccicruisers Posted April 28, 2014 #21 Share Posted April 28, 2014 We will try to keep it extra nice....we have it the week before you. :D We also had this cabin before....in nov 13. It was very quiet with limited foot traffic. I agree with the sagginess....it needs some work. Weird noise when people were walking on the balcony above. Like crunchy glass....bag of chips.....i dont know.....odd sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccersharon Posted April 29, 2014 #22 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) I booked 6232 for August 2015. It'll be great to have such a big balcony so all of can be out there at the same time. This is a surprise cruise for my family. Still trying to figure out a fun way to tell them :) Sent from my mobile device. Typos are inevitable.

092306 Posted April 29, 2014 #23 Share Posted April 29, 2014 We had 6232 on the Miracle and we loved the long balcony! Also, it was probably on of the quietest locations we've ever had a cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AQW Posted April 30, 2014 #24 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Can't wait to have this cabin for 14 nights on the repo cruise next March! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asalligo Posted April 30, 2014 #25 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Sorry, I do not have room 6232, but I was in 6235 just 2 months ago. I will attach pictures. We did not experience any elevator noise or noise from the lobby at all. My wife and I actually discussed the lack of outside noise of any type. https://www.dropbox.com/sc/50fjg8vcxjz4x4l/zcBYylRODv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
