Yes on the inconsistency! I booked the deluxe verandah and called twice to ask about an "upgrade" to get the rooms closer together, I have two. Each time was told full rate for anything.
I just called again after noticing 2 connecting sunset cabins available. According to the agent these were considered the same as the room we already had so no additional dollars. I am second guessing if I made the right choice, but with my almost 16 year old, the connecting cabins will give me peace. The other rooms were the extended balcony rooms, floor 7, above the smoking area - which started my investigation into different rooms.
