Casino Noise

[mame42]

 I will be in a cabin on the Volendam above the casino.  Honestly, since this will be my 1st cabin in this location, I never thought of the possibility of noise from the casino when I selected the cabin.  Has anyone had any experience in a cabin above the casino on the Volendam or any of her sister ships?  Will appreciate any info offered.  Thanks.

Thanks for the info.  I was worried about bells and whistles from the slots.

Not noise, but smoke filled the air going up the center stairs on Volendam. We got so we used the aft stairs to get to our deck 6 cabin instead of the closer amidship stairs. 
We just booked Zaandam on deck 6 and DH asked for an aft cabin just for that reason. And he gets motion sickness.

Yuck!  My cabin this time is closer to the aft stairs.  On the 2024 GAUS/NZ my cabin was practically in the midship elevator lobby; I never noticed any smoke, but I am an early riser/early to bed person, so I may have missed it later in the evening.  Thanks for the info.

There was no smoking in the casino on the 2024 GANZ cruise.

LOL.  Which may be why I never smelled it!
