Cleopatra99 Posted December 20, 2019 #3 Share Posted December 20, 2019 We have been in 8019 for 3 cruises. We loved the location as it is close to the exit onto the open deck, close to the elevators (zero noise) and at the end of a hallway which leads through the little used door into the upper Explorers Lounge. Once, for a very brief period, we experienced some noise from the Sports Deck above - a couple of over enthusiastic shuttle boarders banging and crashing the shuttle off the walls. It was just after lunch (we assume they had a liquid lunch) and the Sports Deck is closed at night so it was a once off and there was really not much impact. Have said all of that - we have also been in 7002 for one cruise and I love it even more. You get basically no passing traffic and it is ideally located for entry into Explorers Lounge on Deck 7 (through the door next to 7000), ideally located near the Wintergarden, pool etc. We are booked for South America next year and as much as my husband wanted 8019, I convinced him to book 7002 again. Both locations are excellent, but in answer to your question re Deck 8 .... for us all pros and no cons. Just my humble opinion of course. 3 hours ago, Beachvue said: Looking for pros/cons for cabins on Deck 8. TIA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
