nana51 Posted March 5, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Off topic. I noticed your name is "kenorus" and you are from Ontario. Anywhere near Kenora? My sister has cottages there. Also what is a VH, inside, outside, or balcony? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenorus Posted March 5, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted March 5, 2014 no not kenorus, name of a campground. It was a balcony cabin to begin with but a vh guarantee when they assigned our room it was a vq 10018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana51 Posted March 5, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Oh. We go to Kenora by lake of the woods every summer. Sunset country. We love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catl331 Posted March 5, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) VQ on Panorama deck is fine IMHO unless you are prone to sea sickness! Small balcony though. Edited March 5, 2014 by catl331 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zentmrs Posted March 5, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I like being on the Panarama Deck, so I would consider it an upgrade - depending on the itinerary. High in the ship is not always better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenorus Posted March 5, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted March 5, 2014 How much smaller of a balcony. And can you tell them you want to change or is it to late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankc98376 Posted March 5, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 5, 2014 But you will have a water feature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankc98376 Posted March 5, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Here is a link to pictures of VQ http://halfacts.com/10034-nieuw-amsterdam-spa-verandah/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catl331 Posted March 6, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 6, 2014 How much smaller of a balcony. And can you tell them you want to change or is it to late.4.5 ft instead of 6 ft for most side balconies. With a guarantee you take what you are given, but IMHO getting a VQ for a VH price is an excellent upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruz chic Posted March 6, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I'd be happy with that. I got that assignment from a VA so you have done ok. As mentioned you can't be picky with a guarantee. I got one to many sucky assignments on Princess so I always pick my cabin on Princess now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dag144 Posted March 7, 2014 #16 Share Posted March 7, 2014 We returned from a Eurodam cruise on March 16th. Had Cabin 10023 on the Panorama Deck. It was fine. Room is the same as all the other standard Verandahs. While a bid smaller, the deck area is adequate for two chairs a tiny table and two glasses of wine! Water feature was never connected. May the water can drip out. We did not miss it. Beds great. The two stewards who serviced the Starboard side of this deck are very efficient. They are a bit shy, but got the cabin ship-shape in no time. Best HAL steward service bar none. Even better than our last Eurodam in a Neptune suite. You will enjoy! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxmantoo Posted March 7, 2014 #17 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Water feature was never connected. May the water can drip out. We did not miss it. It is totally useless and takes up too much space on the already tight desk area. We simply asked our steward to remove it from the room. They weren't too keen on it but changed their mind when I said I would put it out on the balcony ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nieuwuser Posted March 8, 2014 #18 Share Posted March 8, 2014 On our first Cruise (ever) in 2008 we booked a V? and ended up with a VQ on the Eurodam and enjoyed it very much as it was close to where we wanted to be. Our 2nd Cruise in 2013 we booked a VH on the NA and would have been happy to get a VQ but ended up accepting an upsell to an SA Neptune Suite.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
