We were just in the sweet on Freedom in December, and it was great! Noise was our big concern, but it turned out not to be an issue at all (the earplugs stayed in the box). I could hear a muffled door open/close a few times during the day, but I never heard it when trying to go to sleep and it definitely never woke me up. That said, there was a weird semi-loud spraying noise (imagine someone hosing down the other side of the wall) that lasted 3-5 minutes the first 2 mornings on the boat. No clue what that was, and I just fell back asleep. We never heard a peep from the couple in the adjoining room.
As for perks! We did have 2 gold cards waiting for us in our room that we were able to use anywhere gold cards were used (including access to that special beach in labadee with the better buffet, the name of which I forget). We got the ice cream vouchers from the concierge, and B&J did stick to the one small scoop a day rule (which was fine with us). I tried a milkshake once and didn't love it, but the scoops were the B&J I know and love. Free drinks in the concierge lounge at night (limited bar so I stuck to the wine), along with some ok appetizers.
Also, the level of cow decorating was cute but not overwhelming or crazy - I think they've done a good job with it. Overall, we were really glad we tried it and (for the free wine, ice cream, and special beach access in haiti) I think it's a great deal and would do it again :)
I never log on here so this might be my only post, but I hope this helps!
