roswellmom Posted December 26, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 26, 2009 After spending 5 days in Cabin V-5 on the Fantasy, I want to be sure that everyone knows to stay away from this cabin. It is directly under a couple of VERY NOISY gym weight machines. From 6:00 a.m. till 10:00 p.m., there is constant banging from up above. Two thirds of every day, we heard banging from our ceiling. It was terribly annoying. I read another post here on cruise critic but I can't find it again. It was from another past V-5 passenger complaining of this problem. I'm not really a big complainer so, I didn't think much about the posting. BIG MISTAKE. This was a terribly annoying problem and I want to be sure to let anyone booked in this cabin to change.

We will be on the Elation, it will probably have the same set up. but, we will be in V-8 directly across from V-5. If we catch some noise..so be it. It can be a wake up call for us, in addition to the alram.;) We might be in the cabin for a few minutes now and then between those hours, but thanks for the info.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted December 26, 2009 #3 Share Posted December 26, 2009 You may want to put this notice in the "Do Not Book This Cabin" thread on the Cabin Selection Board. I know that it has been mentioned before that there can be a lot of noise from treadmills and other things under the gym. I don't want to be that high and forward, anyway, so I declined the "upsell offer" to Verandah deck on Fascination last year. Give me a cabin on Riveria any day! Besides, I need the exercise from climbing the stairs to help offset all the calories. :p I'm very careful about choosing the location for my cabin and look at the deck plans closely. I don't want to be by the elevators (because of people talking loudly when they exit them late at night), or the steward closets, or under the Lido deck, or the galley, etc., etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruzman Posted December 26, 2009 #4 Share Posted December 26, 2009 There have been a few threads discussing this problem relative to the Fantasy Class. Personally, Carnival should be embarrassed to call these cabins suites, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next 2 Cabins are located on the Lido and Verandah. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
