Cabin 8238M · Valiant Lady

Cabin 8238M is a Solo Insider on Deck 8 of Valiant Lady, forward of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

Voyage Vinyl sits on the deck below, roughly 1 cabin along the ship 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 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 128 cabin positions on Deck 8, this is the 50th from forward.

The Solo Insider grade runs 105-177 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 as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship and better placed for getting around than 96 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
