Cabin selection help needed

[ish drakes]

Hi,

 

I have a booked an E2 on the Adventure of the Seas for a Southern Caribbean Cruise in November and wanted some assistance choosing a balcony cabin.

 

I booked with a travel agent who has us in cabin 6596 on deck 6. I was doing some research here and got some feedback that balconies on deck 6 are not preferable as they don't tend to have the glass opening and are all steel.

 

I went back to the travel agent and she has offered me cabins 7266 or 7268 on deck 7, can anyone advise if I should stick with my current cabin assignment? or is any cabin on any deck other 6 preferable?

 

Also, anyone who has actually stayed in any of the cabins, any insight is welcome.

It is true that all of the side facing balconies on deck 6 have a full steel front, while the ones on the upper deck are part steel and part glass. You have a better view while seated and from inside your cabin on the upper decks.

 

I would absolutely switch to deck 7. Either of those cabins are in a good location, near the forward staircase for a quick run down to the café for a snack on deck 5. They are not connecting, and I cannot see any issue at all with them.

Thanks. I am thinking yes, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't giving up a great cabin for a less than ideal one, ie one with an obstructed view, etc

Anyone else? Anyone cruised in either of these rooms?
