Cabin 7230 · Ovation of the Seas

Cabin 7230 sits on Deck 7 of Ovation of the Seas. You are midship. This is the steady part of the ship. When it gets lumpy, midship is where you want to be. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

It is 8 cabins along the corridor to the aft lift bank, port. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. Quantum runs four lift banks on most decks, a port and starboard pair forward and another pair aft, with two on deck 16. Conventional lifts with call buttons in the lobby and deck buttons in the car. Worth knowing: the cars are quiet, the lobby is not. A cabin beside one hears doors, waiting conversation and footfall in the corridor, heaviest when a show lets out and after the late dinner seating. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 7 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 81st cabin position of 134 along Deck 7. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

Against the rest of the ship it is as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and better placed for getting around than 81 per cent of them. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
