Disney Cruise Line - Stateroom 8516 Report

Notes: The room was basically worn out. for the money you have to pay to get this room, it should be in tip top shape, but the living room couch was uncomfortable and the rug badly needed to be replaced.

Notes: We stayed in 8516 twice, first in Alaska on 6/21/11, then on the MR in 10/11. Both times, amazing experiences. We love this room. Generally pretty quiet, and if you have deck noise from above, tell concierge and they will rope off the area at night/early morning. Love the kids having their own room, plus the closet in the master bedroom is large enough to hold a pack n play, luggage, and clothing.

Notes: Loved this room!!! We had adjoining rooms with my teenage daughter and her friend. We never heard them. Plenty of room and love the new showers. Only down side is it was a long walk when you accidentally get on the mid elevator. :) very convenient to the adult pool.

Notes: The cabin has 2 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, living room/dining room and a wet bar area in just over 900 sq ft. More space/storage than you will ever need. The master has a wonderful walk-in clothet and large bathroom with full size jetted tub that is divided by two doors for more privacy (two of my favorite features of this room). The kids room has two twins and one pulldown bunk & a nice size bathroom and clothet. The 1/2 bath is very nice for guests. The master queen size bed was nice but after being on the Dream a few months ago, it wasn't as comfortable as that one but the sheets were a very good quality. My only problem with that room was the noise above the master bedroom from Deck 9. The first two mornings I was awoke at 5am by the very loud sounds of deck chairs being moved & the deck being cleaned above my head (it sounded like thunder and very hard to sleep or go back to sleep). I mentioned it to my Conceirge on day two and I never heard it again that early in the morning. You could however hear people scooting the chairs above you other hours of the day but it wasn't too bad since you weren't trying to sleep. Above this room is the Quiet Cove smoking area with tables & deck chairs but I never smelt smoke on our triple wide balcony. We had 4 people in this room (2 adults and 2 kids ages 12 & 10) plus many guests visit. The Conceirge staff was wonderful and the perks were very nice (free soda & water delivered everyday on request the first day). The Forward elevators and stairs were just around the corner; never heard any noise being so close to them. I might add that we've sailed in the Roy Suite twice before and this room was just as wonderful and I would sail in it again.

Notes: Lots of space for a family or large group with the couch & 2 chairs in the living room and 6 chairs around the dining room table that can also be used for seating - walk out the door and the forward stairs and elevator are right there - triple wide verandah was great and being on the starboard side we saw the islands - at times there were chairs or equipment being dragged on the 9th deck overhead but it wasn't horrible - 2 1/2 baths was nice when you were trying to get ready for dinner - great perks with concierge(snacks, DVD's, character schedule every morning, ask and they will make it appear)

Notes: We sailed a back to back in this stateroom. The only problem was noise during the night from deck 9. It was heard all through the night. It seemed that they might have been working on the decking on deck 9 and this was not something that normally happened.

Notes: This was an amazing stateroom...more storage than you will (or should) ever need or utilize. The master bed was extremely comfortable, the 2 1/2 baths ideal for 2 adults, DS (19) & DS (14). The triple size veranda was private and perfect. We found ourselves spending more time in the suite than originally thought. Very little noise from deck 9 above, and only when on the veranda. Expensive but luxurious. Being next to the stairs and forward elevators was perfect...no noise from this area whatsoever. This room will not disappoint. Enjoy!

Notes: This room has so much space that you wouldn't need to pay more for the Cat 1. There is almost no difference between them. Great location, not noisy. Plenty of closet, cabinet and drawer space. Loved the longer verandah.
