Your stateroom or cabin, at first glance, will appear very small when compared
to an average hotel room, however, they are designed to be “ship-shape” and efficient. If you have selected an
“inside” stateroom, you will have no window or porthole. An “outside” or “ocean view”
stateroom does have a porthole or picture window. Be sure to make use of the “DO NOT DISTURB” and “MAKE
UP ROOM” signs that are in your cabin, to enable your cabin steward to best serve your needs. Your cabin steward can
also provide you with extra towels, pillows or blankets upon request. Your cabin is generally a secured and private room,
however it is recommended that you do not leave valuables or cash out in the open. If for some reason there is a problem with
your cabin, the person onboard to contact first would be your cabin steward, and then the Hotel Manager. It is usually discouraged
to try and change cabins, and if you want to pursue it, the Purser staff will almost definitely say that there are no cabins
available, however, the best time to approach the Purser or Hotel Manager would be after the ship has sailed.
