manlie Posted July 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Hello - I need some advise please. We are a family group requiring 6 cabins. Due to different stateroom requirements most if us will be spread throughout the ship. My parents cabin (age 65) were booked in a balcony 6 doors down from our aft cabin on deck 10. A 'hump' cabin on the 6th floor has become available and I am wondering if I should move them. It appears the hump on the Freedom isn't as impressive as some of the other ships? For those experienced travellers - what would you suggest? TIA Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA The hump stateroom on Freedom class has the same size balcony as any other side facing balcony in the same category, so the only advantages to the hump are a more dramatic view and close proximity to the elevators/stairs. You would have to weigh if that is more important than being close to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted July 10, 2014 #3 Share Posted July 10, 2014 We've been in several "hump" cabins and like them for the location (close to elevators and stairs) and will continue to book them when available for that reason. That said, I've always thought the people who talk about "seeing forward" etc are greatly inflating the view, you're still pretty much looking out at the water:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marci22 Posted July 10, 2014 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'd probably keep them by me unless they would like being very close to the elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manlie Posted July 10, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thank you! I will leave the cabins as they are - I recall seeing some dramatic 'humps' many years ago but it doesn't appear that Freedom has much advantage to those cabins Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaAtlCruiser Posted July 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I had a hump stateroom on Independence (sister ship to Freedom) in May for a Transatlantic. I loved it! The balcony was not any larger and nothing fancy. But I did like having a better view. And to my surprise - I liked being so close to the stairs. Given the choice, I would book a hump.
