Couches not in Ocean View and below cabins

We usually book an Ocean View Cabin as we like to see daylight, thus an inside is out, and don't find the necessity for a balcony. That said, I notice that Princess and Norwegian do not seem to have couches in their Ocean View or Inside Cabins. Holland America and Celebrity have couches in every cabin. Have no idea why they would put couches in their Balcony Cabins and above but not in the Ocean Views and Insides. Since we have never been on Princess but would like to travel with them  Are there any of the Princess ships that do have couches in the Ocean View Cabins? Just cannot see traveling from 8 to 14 days in a cabin that has only the bed or maybe one chair for seating. 😕

Couch....🤣. They just removed all of the cushioned barrel chairs. You get a desk chair and the bed to sit on unless you book a deluxe balcony or higher. You can book a balcony and bring one of those deck chairs in the room.  Royal Caribbean also has a well appointed room with a couch in OV rooms categories.

That is really too bad as most older people cannot sit comfortably on a bed, especially to watch TV or just to have a conversation. When they outfit these ships don't they discuss these things with each other? Who makes the final decision? Guess we won't be traveling on Princess any time soon.

You are so right Princess skews older than most lines. We first sailed on the old Crown Princess in 1991 with my SIL and BIL. We were in our late 20's and were the youngest ones on board. My SIL and BIL live in Florida and take several Princess cruises a year. She just commented that almost 30 years later in their late 50's they still feel like the youngest on board. It must be some Millennial who grew up sitting on the floor gaming who decided that chairs are obsolete.
