Hi. I’ve been in both types of cabins and I prefer the traditional-rectangular-shaped cabin. With the rectangular cabin, the balcony door is centered in the middle of the room. As soon as you walk in, you can appreciate the view. With the slanted room, the balcony door is off-center, so that the room is a little less bright. However, you DO have more room both inside and outside with that slanted room. It’s just that the symmetrical design was more pleasing to me.
