MSC Seaside - Deck 5

[gratamama]

Hi all,

Looks like Deck 5 on MSC Seaside is the first passenger deck. Right now Oceanview bella and fantastica are only offered on Deck 5. Is this level OK in terms of noise? Anyone experienced this deck? I think its a porthole deck which is sort of a bummer, but I'm more concerned about noise. Looks like Deck 6 forward is the theater and Deck 6 Mid is the lobby.

 

TIA!

I've was in a deck five Fantastica OV midhip.  No noise from above or atrium but there was a constant drone from the engines, not really a problem to me.  The Bella OV forward are under the theater so in addition to more wave noise you may get to hear them practicing the shows during the day.  Deck five gets a little more hall foot traffic than other decks, officers use the hallway a lot and it also gets used as a shortcut to the atrium when port stop boarding is on deck four.  Getting an elevator is a bit easier as it's usually the last/first stop.
