Cabin 5238 · Mardi Gras

Cabin 5238 is an Interior (category 4B1) on Mardi Gras, 149 to 185 square feet.

Cabin 5238 is an Interior on Deck 5 of Mardi Gras, and it sits forward of midship. You are near the bottom of the passenger decks, which is the steadiest place to be, though it is a fair climb to the open air. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Mardi Gras Theater is on the deck above, about 2 cabins along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 15th cabin position of 128 along Deck 5.

An Interior gives you 149-185 square feet. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is noisier than three quarters of the 2,638 cabins on board. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes and anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
