We booked a 7 day cruise to Alaska last minute. We had cabin class 7A which is a partially obstructed balcony. The obstruction was at the bottom of the balcony and was the top of a life boat. This did not bother us at all and we were happy to have the savings.

Embarkation was not super quick, but we were traveling with a 3 year old and they put us in the expedited line, which was fantastic. I think we were on board in an hour, it wasn't horrible.

The food was better than I expected and we ate mostly at the buffet. Made to order omelets in the morning, etc. great salad bar, lots of fresh fruit and good variety in the evening. Hot food was hot, cold food was cold, veges were not overcooked. Room was clean and spacious. I wouldn't say the staff on this ship is overly attentive, but it was fine, and I didn't feel ignored.

Cabin Review

Partially Obstructed Balcony cabin class 7A- great views!! Life boat top in the bottom of the balcony. Didn't bother us. Great value we would definitely stay in these again if available. We would try to get one more in the middle - we were right next to the extended balcony rooms so there was more blocked on our Right side than in the other P O balcony rooms. Still didn't bug us.
