New cabins on deck 12 on Freedom

[95roadking]

We sail on FOS in a few weeks and are in one of the new balcony cabins forward on deck 12. Some deck plans I have looked at call them spa cabins. Not sure what that means as on my reservation they are listed as deluxe cabins. Has anyone stayed in one, and what did you think of them?

Real quick summary, and thanks to Biker for the promo of my adventure.

We were in 1890, the first balcony on the port side.

 

Balcony is really windy

Balcony is not as deep as most E2's

Balcony has a speaker, really loud

Balcony does have the reclining chairs and the steward should get you a stool

Balcony does have the taller table

 

Cabin has ample storage

Cabin has a really big TV, maybe 32"

Bathroom is same as all the rest

 

No real noise from the sundeck above, no one ever goes up there it seems

The door to the outer decks sometimes slams closed, but not to noticeable

 

Great location for Sky bar, Solarium, and the upper sundeck

 

Unfortunately not a good location for dining or going to the C&A lounges.

 

Like the B&J Sweet, it's a bucket list thing that I won't do again.

 

That's all that i got. Have fun

Thanks John. We are in 1888.

We were also in 1890 and loved it - but that is because most days were spent the Solarium bar! Newer room, newer bathroom, bigger TV.
