Stateroom Catagories

[yallcome]

:confused: Is there anywhere I can go to understand the catagories of the staterooms?

 

I was guaranteed a cat E--and am now in a cat H---portside midship--but I have no idea what all this really means--I'm on the Prinsendam.

 

Many Thanks!!

You might check out HAL's Website.

 

I looked at the location of the E's -- they look wonderful. The H"s are all the way forward and appear to be smaller.

Have you checked out the Holland America website? Try this link and check out the deckplans-link is lower right on this webpage: http://www.hollandamerica.com/cruise-vacation-onboard/Prinsendam I haven't sailed the Prinsendam (yet) but the alpha designations for the regular cabins (not suites) start with the best/highest/mid-ship cabins (A) and end with the worst/lowest/ends of the ship ®. It seems to me that if you were guaranteed an E and you are assigned an H you should contact your TA.

I don't understand how yallcome could have gone down in Category-something isn't right to have booked a better class to be bumped downward. This needs to be discussed with Holland or travel agent, whoever did the booking.

The H have only portholes, and are way up near the bow. If you're "portside midship" you do not have an H. What is the cabin number? Most likely it is a D or E.

Accckkkk---I posted this backwards--so sorry!! I was originally an H and am now an E---

In that case you've gotten a nice upgrade! Congratulations! The E's midship have rectangular windows, will offer a smoother and quieter ride, and are more equi-distant from all public areas of the ship. :)

Congratulations on your upgrade. You'll have a tub and shower, loveseat, and lots of storage space. I'm happy for you.

Only three more days...

Unfortunately no bathtub---I do wish we had one--but I think it'll be terrific nonetheless!:D

About half the Prinsendam E's have a shower and bathtub! What is your cabin number?
