kcmom Posted October 23, 2011 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I think the subject line says it all. My dear brother and sister-in-law have invited me on an inexpensive cruise next spring. Our first option is an inside cabin with a trundle bed. I've searched/read about trundles and I'm just not sure what to do. We're all pretty average-sized people, but certainly not small and we are all over 45! The cabin is mid-ship and mid-deck. It truly is a trundle and not a roll-away according to the carnival representative. My brother has some issues with sea sickness. I'm fine and my sister-in-law does well also. We have all cruised before. Anyway, the second option is an ocean-view but aft and on the bottom deck. It has a pull-down bed. Advice, please?

cb at sea Posted October 24, 2011 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Do you want to sleep below them, or above them???? That's the only difference. Each bed...whether trundle or pullman, is sized for adults. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicajay Posted October 24, 2011 #3 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Trundle rooms leave no floor space. Can't imagine doing this with 3 adults. Ok for a family with kids as it is similar to camping. We called it the cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take the upper bed before I would take the trundle or rollaway. It just takes up way too much floor space. Being low is good- especially for someone who gets sea sick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy ks Posted October 28, 2011 #5 Share Posted October 28, 2011 If it were me, I'd get a second job, have a garage sale, anything to earn some extra cash to get a second cabin. I love my sister to pieces and would share a cabin with her and I, but no way would I share a cabin with her and my husband. No way would I want to share a cabin with a couple. Not merely because of the beds, but sharing the bathroom and just privacy overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
