Cabin 8254 · Mardi Gras

Cabin 8254 is a Havana Interior (category HA1) on Mardi Gras, 185 square feet.

Cabin 8254 is a Havana Interior on Deck 8 of Mardi Gras, and it sits far forward. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

On the ship's plan Mardi Gras Theater is two decks down, about 13 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. We give it 10 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 2 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 34th cabin position of 62 along Deck 8. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

A Havana Interior gives you 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 as quiet as anything on board. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
