- I'm back with a brand new series for Best & Worst Staterooms on @RoyalCaribbean Ships. This week I will be covering the Freedom Class and starting with, of course, the Freedom of the Seas.
If you are an experienced RCCL cruiser, these videos are probably not for you. These videos are grared towards cruise novices or those new to Royal Caribbean.
These videos are long and not intended to be watched in their entirety. Feel free to skip to the section you are interested in using the Chapters below.
As I mention in the video, check out @RoyalCaribbeanBlog for all information about Royal Caribbean. I used CruiseStateroom.com for the deck plans.

Thank you! I really appreciate that you broke it down into distinct chapters so that it was easy to skip straight to the one I needed.
You are very welcome. Hope you found it helpful!
Thank you for sharing 🙂 looks like fun
This was a WONDERFUL video. This will be my first cruise with children and you helped me pick the room! Thank you!
Wonderful! I love to hear that! Have a great time
Great Job! The information is precious
Thank you
Hey Shannon!!! Thank you so very much for this video!! Booked our first family cruise with 2 connecting interior promenade view staterooms!
Wonderful! Have a great cruise. Freedom is a great ship. We are booked on her in 2025
@@ShannonFord thank you and wishing you all the best for your cruise on Freedom in 2025!!
Thank you for this! I’m booked for 8710 & have been feeling much regret, as everything is sold out on my sailing and I wish the room got more light. But hoping we enjoy it anyway! I couldn’t find this information anywhere so thank you ☺️
Glad I could help
Tysm!
Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
did a royal up and they assigned me for 8200! cant wait!
Awesome! Congrats
We just booked one of the new spacious ocean views you mentioned and I ended up on your video looking for pics of our room lol guess it will be a surprise!
When is your cruise? I’m hoping to try and get access to one to film
@@ShannonFord 1/17!
@@mackennasmusicchannel1988 LOL. We are on the sailing just before you.
@@ShannonFord Aww bummer! If you want me to make a video or take pics let me know 😊
@@mackennasmusicchannel1988 yes! Absolutely if I can’t get in one on my sailing. I honestly think those will be amazing staterooms. If you have kids, the location is perfect
Is cabin 7646 on the hump? Your video is amazing.
Thanks. Yes it is. on the side of the hump, but also right near an elevator. Excellent location.
@ShannonFord Thank you sooo much for your prompt response.
How are rooms where the door is directly facing out to the elevator lobbies? Is it loud, or do they have closing doors to the hallways at night? I just got upgraded to this balcony one but worried now I won't be able to sleep
Not loud at all. It’s not like a hotel. There’s a good separation between the hallway and elevators. Being by the elevators is one of the most desirable locations
🧡❤💜
booked Deck 12 room ocean panoramic view without balcony near front of ship. If is super noisy with pool, movie screen, and band just one deck below? Room 1816.
Everyone I know that books those, love them
Deck 7 also has Category CI (interior connecting) stateroom.
There are connecting staterooms that are not categorized as such. I only went over the ones that have that distinction like CI, CP or CB. Otherwise the video would be 4 hours long.
Informative video, but it looks like the web site you mentioned is charging for membership now, $8.99 a year to see actual room photos.
I believe they always have. I've had it for years and I do the 3 year option. A website like that isn't easy to maintain and I think the fee is reasonable. For me, it's a small price to pay to not have to go searching for pictures myself. But if you don't want to pay, you still have access to the deck plans.
What about noise being in the Jr. Suite right near the elevator?
Being near the elevators is a good thing. Noise is rarely an issue. They are situated in a way that it doesn’t make a difference. It’s not like a hotel
@@ShannonFord ok, just curious. I figured the volume of people waiting or congregating, and potentially the staircases, could create some noise.
Have you done a video on bringing a baby and what is available
We only sailed on 1 cruise when my son was a baby and it was for his first birthday. We chose to wait until he was older to sail again for a variety of reasons. So I don’t have much experience.
also how late is pool open?
That, I have no idea
There are....not there is...when you are talking about more than 1 cabin...🙂
There’s no “floors” on ships. There’s only decks.
