soozenw Posted May 10, 2012 #27 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I do have a question, for those in the know. Did you hear much noise from the storage room the stewards use? We tend to stay up late and with the port days being so early on this itinerary I don't expect we will sleep in because we will be on the go all day long. We had 6232 on the Pride and the only noise we heard was when the seas got really rough a couple of nights and stuff was falling over in there. But one of the stewards must have been nearby (or in there!) and we heard a little banging around as they put things back into place. Honestly, it wasn't bad at all. The noise/shaking from the ship was worse than anything I heard from the steward closet. I did a if anyone wants to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting_Cruiser Posted May 10, 2012 #28 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I have to laugh! We have cabin 7258 on the Legend next May 4th cruising out of Venice. We are crazy balcony people and I almost jumped in the air when I saw this was free when I was looking to book. We have had afts and aft wraps, but never this one. It really is a thing of beauty. The price we paid was crazy good and for us a bigger room is not important. I do have a question, for those in the know. Did you hear much noise from the storage room the stewards use? We tend to stay up late and with the port days being so early on this itinerary I don't expect we will sleep in because we will be on the go all day long. Another person to take care of my cabin! ;) Like you, I was super excited to see this one available fro our 12-day Baltic cruise next summer--DD and I are definitely balcony people and when I can get a larger one for an 8K price, I'm a happy girl! :D I did a quick search on CC before actually booking it and the reports were that there's no noise from the stewards' area or the elevators.:D We never heard a peep in 7258 (on Spirit) from the steward area, and we like to spend *lots* of time in the room. (On this trip a little more time than we liked - 7258 still wasn't quite long enough to escape the chain-smoking neighbours, lol.) I was also listening for noise since I'd read here that it might be a concern. Zero issues! Still waiting for someone to design a Club 7258 membership shirt. ;) Enjoy! Bummer about the neighbors--you'd think with a balcony that size you could get away from them! :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsfan Posted May 10, 2012 #29 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I am not hating on anyone, but that is a shame when you can't enjoy a balcony like that. It really is a crap shoot as to who our neighbors will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishlinny Posted May 15, 2012 #30 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Just got off Miracle and we had 7258 for the 2nd time...it's the best! No noise from the storage room. We spent a lot of time on that balcony and really enjoyed it. I actually think I like it better than any of the afts because they tend to be in the sun most of the day;) Not good for a person like me who has to be careful of the sun.

Y2K_FRC Posted June 17, 2012 #33 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Thanks to everyone who posted about this cabin. We have booked 6232 on the Miracle sailing to the Eastern Caribbean on 9/27/2012. We will share pix and video when we return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patcruise1 Posted July 31, 2012 #34 Share Posted July 31, 2012 We are going on the Pride - July 14, 2013 - Cabin 7258. I have seen the pictures of the balcony and can't wait. Was just on the Miracle and had an aft wrap in February/2012. Would love to have the aft-wrap again, but couldn't justify the cost. I hope this to be a good fit with the balcony.

serene56 Posted July 31, 2012 #35 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I too am booked in cabin 6232, only on the Pride. Should I expect the same type of cabin? I know that it is an extended balcony? Is this ship the same fleet? Any pics or info? Thanks cabin sleeps 4- sofa bed and an upper bed. on the pride: http://www.travelingnuts.com/2011cruise/images/DSCN0188.JPG you are above lifeboats-- http://www.travelingnuts.com/2011cruise/images/DSCN0186.JPG there is an awesone hot tub located in the gym area that no one knows about http://www.travelingnuts.com/2011cruise/images/DSCN0202.JPG the upper bed is in the ceiling http://www.travelingnuts.com/2011cruise/images/DSCN0184.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv2SeaU Posted July 31, 2012 #36 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Just wanted to make sure....Cabin 6232 on the Spirit is one of the largest on the ship for that size cabin? Any pics of it anywhere? Or go with the smaller cabin balcony in cabin 4220, the price difference is $140, but then again there are 2 adults and 2 kids.....I put a 24hr hold on the room, so I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for your quick response. how do you put a hold on the room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heatherbean Posted July 31, 2012 #37 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I have 7258 booked on the Pride in April 2013 :D. My DH thinks we are going to be in a regular balcony room. It's our 1st cruise and I figured, if we find out we're not "cruise people" we'll still have a great balcony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisercrazy69 Posted August 1, 2012 #38 Share Posted August 1, 2012 how do you put a hold on the room? You put a hammer lock on the door handle LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted August 1, 2012 #39 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Just wanted to make sure....Cabin 6232 on the Spirit is one of the largest on the ship for that size cabin?. just wanted to make it clear that the cabin is the same size as the rest of them- there is nothing special about the cabin. its the balcony- there is only 3 balconies of that size of the entire ship but only one that holds 4 persons.

iCommodore Posted July 24, 2019 #41 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I’m so, so glad to find this thread! We’re booked on the Miracle to Alaska July of 2020. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this room! I booked it, but then started second guessing because of the possible noise from service close. Thank you all for sharing your knowledge. It really put my mind to rest. I fell super special. Like a member of a super secret esoteric cabal. (Crossing my fingers that nothing has changed in 8 years.)
