clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 #1 Share Posted February 1, 2007 have a curtain or door? Just thinking about the wonderful "sticking factor" of the curtains!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Haynes Posted February 1, 2007 #2 Share Posted February 1, 2007 The Sun and the Pride of Aloha (ex Sky) have a round shower stall with a curtain. I beleive he new Star class ships and the Spirit have a door in a rectangular shower stall. I'm not sure about the Pride of America, but the older NCL ships have a curtain.

clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Thanks. Guess I'd better throw in some plastic clothespins to "hold it down"!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 Author #5 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Kelli, we are in 0114, but we are on the Feb 25th sailing. That is so funny that you are in 0113.:D Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelster42 Posted February 1, 2007 #6 Share Posted February 1, 2007 How was the room? We have 4 of us in there. 2 adults 2 kids. Is it the pull down beds or a sleeper sofa? Kelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globaliser Posted February 1, 2007 #7 Share Posted February 1, 2007 On the Sun, inside room, deck 10.Can't now add anything to the answer. But can I please say this: Thank you for asking a question about an inside cabin! The way people go on on CC, anyone would think that nobody ever cruised in any grade lower than a mini-suite! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 Author #8 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Kelli, someone posted a pic of the inside cabin on one of the NCL ships with 4 beds. There was 1 bunk on the wall and 3 beds (wall-to-wall) beneath it. We did an inside with 4 adults on RCI, but it had 2 bunks on the wall and a bed under each one. There was plenty of room that way. It left some floor space between the beds. I don't think you will have that on NCL. At least 2 of your 4 are children. It would definately be harder with 4 adults. Globaliser, I don't have a problem with an inside cabin. I don't really feel like we can afford to cruise in a more expensive cabin. Have been on only 2 cruises, but on both of those, we spent very little time in our cabin. Plus, we have to fly to ports, so that is an added expense that people who live close to ports don't have. We actually booked an inside gty on deck 4 and when we were assigned a cabin, we received a great upgrade. Very Pleased! :) Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 Author #10 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Kelli, here is the link to the pic. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=34772&d=1168808673 This is actually on the Dawn, but I think they are all pretty much the same.

kelster42 Posted February 1, 2007 #11 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Sounds interesting I hope we will have some floor space. Thanks for the info. Kelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ute_fan Posted February 1, 2007 #12 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I think you'll be fine. It looks like 0113 is one of the "superior inside" cabins, which don't have the normal layout of the other NCL ships. Here's the info for your cabin (I only did one of them): Cabin 0113 Hair Dryer (1) Telephone (1) Safety Deposit Box (1) Television (1) Crib (1) Convertible Lower Beds (2) Cabin Square Footage (172) Inside Stateroom Sitting Area Pullman Bed (1) Convertible Double Sofa Bed (1) Midship Section Port Side Duvet Shower (1) Pier forward Refrigerator (1) Sprinklers If you're putting 4 of you in an inside cabin, this is probably the best NCL has to offer. You've got the two lower beds, one pullman bed, and the double sofa bed, along with 172 square feet, which is quite a bit larger than the standard NCL inside cabin. Happy cruising!

clerky96 Posted February 1, 2007 Author #16 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I know there are a lot of people who wouldn't ever cruise in an inside cabin, but I don't mind. Whether they think I am poor, a cheapskate, or just plain crazy doesn't really matter to me. It is sort of like eating out. If someone wants to spend their money on lobster, while I spend mine on a hamburger, the results are still the same in the end; we have both eaten. I am just feeding my cruise appetite in an inside cabin!:D Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms SailAway Posted February 1, 2007 #17 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Just returned from the W. Carribean trip on the Sun 1/23-28. The shower does have a curtain rather than a door. However, the curtain has 4-5 vertical rods sewn into it to keep it from blowing in and sticking to you. A nice touch :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkloni Posted February 2, 2007 #19 Share Posted February 2, 2007 We toured the Sun at the end of November and I have to say that she has some of the largest inside cabins I've ever seen! When I looked into the first couple I thought they had to be ADA handicapped rooms. But after seeing 4 or 5 in a row, I asked the cabin steward who said those were normal inside cabins. Everyone I saw had a sofa and room to walk around both beds. The bathrooms did seem a bit odd because the floor is completely flat like the handicapped bathrooms, just not quite as big. I've stayed in inside, oceanview and balcony cabins. I like to be able to see if it's day or night, raining or sun's shining. So when we've had an inside I wasn't the happiest, BUT....I'd rather be on the ship in an inside, then not at all! Have a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicajay Posted February 2, 2007 #20 Share Posted February 2, 2007 We stayed in the largest inside on the Sun with our family of four. I believe it was 192 sq ft. We had two single beds and a pull out sofa bed. Even with the sofa bed open there was a bit of room to walk around. It was great. This year we are doing the wall to wall bed thing on the Dawn. I didn't realize it was that tight till after booking and by that time I had my heart set on the dates and itinerary. Don't confuse the photos of the Dawn with those of the Sun. I just wish NCL had built some larger insides on all it's ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ask4Jay Posted February 2, 2007 #21 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Globaliser, clerky96 and fin - I just *have* to add my 2 cents’ worth to maybe change your opinion on this board’s participants. DW and I do not spend any time in the casinos, we do not eat in the extra-charge restaurants, and we do not buy any drinks or art. On board we usually eat in the main restaurant or the buffet. Food is not that important to us. At home our favorite restaurant is the local diner, our car is a ‘97 VW with a diesel engine, averaging 40 MPG. One tank of diesel takes us from Philly to Daytona Beach! You can see where I am going? We are frugal, maybe even cheap. On the other hand, we used to (before retirement) sail a small sail boat, so we cruise to be on a ship; visiting foreign ports is incidental. The ship is our destination. And therefore we book the smallest cabin available with a balcony. That is a premium we gladly pay, even if it means cruising less often. We have to have some private space outside. To us there is nothing like sitting on the balcony in our PJs before sunrise or, for that matter, any time of day, away from the hustle and bustle on the pool deck. Whatever floats your boat: Enjoy!
