gwennw Posted July 9, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2008 My husband surprised me with a cruise on the Liberty in October. :DI usually am a bit of a control freak in picking out our cabin, but since it was a surprise...he had a travel agent book the cabin. It is a JS on deck 9, right near the front elevator bank (cabin 9244, if anyone is familiar). I have read on the boards in the past, that cabins near the elevators can be noisy. Any opinions on the location of this cabin? I have never been on the Liberty, so I have no idea what to expect (I know, I know...I need to learn to give up a little control...but a girl needs her beauty sleep!!!!). Should I keep it, or try to switch locations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lvtotrvl1 Posted July 9, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I prefer rooms near the elevators....easy access to them and the stairs. I've never had a problem with noise yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady_cruiser Posted July 9, 2008 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Congratulations on having such a wonderful husband who surprised you with a cruise. Elevators are not directly across from your cabin doors but around the corner, behind a bank of walls, if that makes sense. You will not have to worry about any noise from the elevators. ENJOY YOUR CRUISE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxs mom Posted July 9, 2008 #4 Share Posted July 9, 2008 We always choose cabins near the elevators for convenience since my husband has some trouble walking long distances. We have never had a problem with noise. Don't worry about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
negc Posted July 9, 2008 #5 Share Posted July 9, 2008 If I can, I would like to offer one more testimony concerning the preferability of staterooms located near the elevators and the lack of noise that they occasion. Whenever possible we choose such rooms and, to date, we have never experienced any noise problems with those locations.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted July 9, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 9, 2008 All I can say is "Ditto". Cabins by the elevators and stairs are the best. You can be on another deck in seconds. You never have to walk along the long corridors of stateroom doors unless you choose to. You can easily pick a more interesting deck to walk the length of the ship. Enjoy your JS and have a wonderful time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djandnic Posted July 9, 2008 #9 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Never had a problem with noise from an evlavator, always try and get a room close by, saves a lot of walking time, and generally near the middle of the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy. I don't think so. There's no such cabin number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted July 9, 2008 #11 Share Posted July 9, 2008 The elevators are in their own little lobby, separated from the passageways where the cabins are located. Very convenient, and no noise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniMom57 Posted July 9, 2008 #12 Share Posted July 9, 2008 3 out of my 5 cruises I have had a cabin near the elevators and will book near them again every time, if I can! Convenient....no long halls to navigate....quiet...easy to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoop Posted July 10, 2008 #13 Share Posted July 10, 2008 We had an inside room next to/behind an elevator last trip and no noise at all other than people laughing coming in from a good time late at night. We take a small electric metal fan for "white noise" for this reason. Works perfectly every time. Also keeps our "noise" down from bothering others.

Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted July 10, 2008 #14 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Like many of the others here, we deliberately book cabins near elevators. We have never regretted rooms close to elevators. We have never been troubled by noise. It doesn't matter, either, whether our cabin was on Deck Two or in a balcony cabin...just as long as the room was close to the elevators.

BobbyK Posted July 10, 2008 #15 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I love those cabins and have never had a problem with the elevator near by. Sometimes it gets a little noisy but that can happen anywhere. A surprise cruise, what a wonderful treat. Robin :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
