Room


Recommended Posts

To see what your room'll look like, go to You Tube.  If you've seen one inside room on Freedom, you've seem 'em all.  If you move to a different category, look at a deck plan and see what other rooms are in your category /same color -- they'll be the same.  Or nearly the same.  

 

Deck 3 isn't the greatest, but I have a couple thoughts: 

- Once you're in the room, it's identical to all other inside rooms.  Our personal favorite is Deck 6 because it's just one quick set of steps down to the Promenade ... Deck 3 is just two quick steps up to the Promenade. 

- The negative of Deck 3 is largely mental ... you're far from the fun, but aren't you going to take the elevator up anyway?  The only real, tangible negative of Deck 3 is that it has a lot of small rooms, which means it's more crowded.  

- If it really bothers you, call and ask if another same-category room is available.  Be nice, be willing to take no for an answer, and go in knowing you have nothing to lose.  

- $100/pp to go from an inside to a balcony?  No, you don't NEED to do it, but I'd throw the dice!  Again, nothing to lose.

Walking is healthy, so a good thing... especially on a giant floating buffet. 😁

 

Agreed... except when I decided to walk up from deck 6 to deck 17 on Wonder after an aqua show b/c the elevators were stupid crowded. Those last few flights were rough, lol.

Lol.. So I think we can agree that a cabin on the 3rd deck is not necessarily a bad thing, as I believe you implied on your earlier post.

This is hit or miss.

Not sure what you mean by 'mental' .. far from the fun (as you say), is a few steps, or an elevator ride away (oh, the humanity!)

This is a definite no!

Throwing the dice is never a good option, odds are that 95% of the time you lose.

Here is another website for viewing cabins.
