Execs? We found this stateroom is quite snug and preferred the appointments and features. Our most significant “pro” was the place, which is to be anticipated for an accessible accommodation. Our pics over do not do the space justice. It appears to be substantially more spacious than what they replicate. In addition, this stateroom is pretty close to the River Grill, producing a trip there fast and uncomplicated.

Downsides? Mainly because this stateroom is far aft, there is some engine sounds, notably when the vessel is sailing.
