7 Days in a Controversial Cabin With NO PRIVACY

I'd just disembarked a cruise where I stayed in a budget balcony cabin that didn't face the ocean. Was it worth the saving? In this video I'll share all!

Normally if you take a cruise in a balcony cabin you can expect your own little private place where you can see out but nobody can see you. That isn’t what happened on my last cruise though because I booked a balcony cabin that faced inside the ship, directly at other cabins.

This type of room is one of the most controversial and it certainly took some getting used to, there were pros and a few cons that I hadn’t thought about pre-cruise and I saw and felt, some interesting things from up here.
There are plenty of reviews and videos that warn people not to stay in this type of cabin but when I saw this video I knew I had to book one to try it for myself.

I love quirky cabins! Check out these next:

A couple of months before this I took a cruise on a very similar ship owned by Royal Caribbean. Our promenade balcony cabin had no clear view of the ocean and we had a couple of issues with noise, soot and general privacy. It looked as though the MSC cabin might be better in a few ways, or so I hoped.

When I cruise I usually book what is called a Guaranteed cabin where you don’t pick the specific cabin location but I knew exactly what cabin I wanted so I did pay slightly extra to book this room. I wanted a cabin towards the back as it looked like we would have a good ocean view as well as a view of the promenade but I hoped that we wouldn’t feel too much engine movement from there as that’s often a problem with aft cabins.

I noticed from the deck plans that the cabin was a different shape to normal, normally they are long and thin and this was more square but I didn’t mind that, it looked spacious enough and the balcony shape looked interesting.
