Cabin V21 - The cabin was minimally larger than a cat. 8 cabin on Destiny class ships and the balcony was smaller than the balcony in cat. 8 cabins on Destiny Class ships. For the price of this cabin I could have paid for 1 1/2 passages in a balcony cabin on a Destiny class ship. Never again!!

Cabin R123 - There was a noise from outside - a high pitched hmmm. Otherwise, the layout & size were great.

(3) From: GUEST

that is because this ship is 3 years older than the Destiny.
