Vibration on Island Princess?

[Rhodes727]

We are thinking of booking a cabin on the Island Princess near the aft stairway. Anyone have experience with this location? Thinking in terms of vibration or noise.

Thanks

We were on the Island last May going to Alaska and we were on Baja deck and had the very last room on the starboard side. The only vibration was when the ship would dock and it would have to use the thrusters. It was awful sounding but it wasn't intolerable. It would definitely wake you up if you were asleep though. I might would still pick this location if I had the choice again because it was right next to a private deck. The down side to this location was the fact that the door going out to this private deck would slam closed when someone would go in or out. Also, if smoking is an issue for you, the smoke would blow right onto your balcony from this deck. The balcony also had very little privacy. It is an uncovered balcony so everyone can see you from above and also from the deck on the back. Hope this helps some.
