Westbound Transatlantic - Port or Starboard Cabin?

I'm looking at a Transatlantic in the Fall 2020.  Westbound back to Ft. Lauderdale from Rome.  Balcony cabin.  Is it best to have a port or starboard cabin??  I like to sit on my cabin a lot, especially in the morning so I'm thinking I might not want the sun in my face all morning (starboard), but I like to sit on the balcony in the afternoons as well, before dinner, etc and thinking a port side might have nice sunsets??. This is my first T/A from that direction so hoping for some advice.  Thanks!

You are sailing mostly WSW, so starboard will get you shelter from the sun NO sun in morning, slight advantage for sunsets. But depending on how late in the fall, it's brisk at sea and if I were going to use my balcony, I would want port (SOUTH) for all day warming from the sun.
