Allure of the Seas - deck 6

[txmommy2]

We have a large balcony cabin mid ship deck 6. Post booking I read deck 6 is not a great place to be. Anyone have feedback on deck 6?

 

Also, how many “formal” nights on the 7 day cruises? Do most dress up or is it everything  from casual to fancy? We have cruised many times but it has been a few years.

I have many clients that love deck 6 on Oasis class.  Convenient location.  Central Park, BW and Promenade all easily walkable without using the elevator.

Nothing wrong with deck 6. Walk out the back door to Boardwalk or down one flight to the Promenade.  I have stayed on deck 6 and enjoyed it.

Deck 7 is less than ideal since you can't cut directly across from one passenger hallway to the other, but as others have said, 6 is a pretty good location.

 

There's one night called "formal" and another usually called "dress to impress" or "dress your best." And yes, there is a wide range of attire, but relatively little true formal wear.  To be fair, my last Allure cruise had several families celebrating what appeared to be quinceaneras, so they were dressed to the nines. But that is definitely not the norm. 🙂

Deck 6 can be a good location but take a look at deck 5 to see what is below your cabin.  I wonder if it’s under Boleros can you see music from there?  I’m not sure, but I would wonder.

Deck 6 on Oasis class is my preference.  Easy access to a lot of places just by taking one or two flights of stairs.

Count me as one of them. Love deck 6😇

Are there any cabins on deck 6 you would avoid?

Every time we have been on an Oasis class we try to get either deck 6 or 7 middle and have loved it; so close or centered to everything we want.

The cabins above Boleros were carved out of the old DL on her first drydock. I'd avoid them and not for the potential noise issue. Other cabins squeezed in at the same time are much smaller than std insides

Ones that back up to Dazzles. Tiny
