Disney Cruise Line - Stateroom 2511 Report

Notes: Very cozy stateroom and comfortable for what it was - a place to unwind and sleep! We loved it. Pros: - Convenient to adult areas and Walt Disney Theater. - Fairly convenient to areas to get off the ship at certain ports. - Not too far of a walk from the nearest elevator bank but not too close either. Elevator sweet spot! - No noise whatsoever from being directly below O'Gill's pub. The pub's music isn't loud and I did not hear any bleed-over from the pub in our room. This was my biggest worry when noting the location of our room prior to sailing and it was not an issue at all! (Side note: Based on feedback from another cruiser on this cruise, you should try to steer clear of rooms beneath Fathoms - those rooms will present much more disruptive noise bleed-over than O'Gill's, which is pretty much 0 issue.) - Easy enough to get to the soda fountain at the aft section of the ship, even if the deck plan makes it seem like it will be an endless slog from this room. Try walking to the aft of the ship while still on deck 2 and then take the elevator up to 9 - much less weaving through crowds on deck 9 to get to the soda! Cons NOTE: I honestly was not bothered at all by any of these and still give the room a 5-star. But I want to mention them for full disclosure, as others may find this pertinent. - Very slight noise when ship docks and leaves port. (From about 6:30 AM to 7:30 AM and roughly around 5:00 PM or so). I would describe this as sort of like the sound of a low vibration rattling something in the room very slightly. It is enough to be noticed but I didn't find it grating/annoying. My husband slept through it most all of the days and I didn't have any issues ignoring it for the small duration it was around if it did happen to coincide with me being awake. My husband and I theorize this is the noise of the mooring lines or anchor lines being unspooled in the morning and then retracted in the evening - this room is close to the anchor chains. This should only concern you if you are an insanely light sleeper, but even then I found the noise not too troubling. - Slightly more rocking motion being in the forward of the ship. Those with motion sickness may already know this and go for the middle parts of the ship anyways. There was a tiny bit of extra movement from being in the forward part of the ship, though I found it almost soothing when in bed like being rocked to sleep or something. This is all subjective, of course. Overall - Very snug and cozy room. Just big enough to be comfortable but not too small to be constrictive. Husband and I enjoyed the room for the week we were there. Bed was comfortable. I'd suggest this room for those looking for an 11C or, for those who may have been assigned this as an IGT like we were, don't be worried - very good room!

Notes: What a difference from 2011. There's now a LOUD knocking noise while ship's in motion either coming from above room or WAS the room. Lots of engine noise as well. Blanket looked worn & sheets actually had holes in them!! Has both couch and pull down bed.

Notes: No noise, very quiet room. Small, but well suited to our two-person party. Convenient location, would definitely sail again in this room.

Notes: The room was quiet, tucked away from other traffic. Very convenient location to the restaurants and Walt Disney Theatre. The room was on the small side, ok with younger kids. It is a connecting room to 2507.

Notes: Not much noise at all. This room had a pulldown bed w/Peter Pan & crew in the stars above it for the kids. The virtual porthole was great. Was tight for 3 people, but was not an issue as we weren't in it much!!

Notes: Great location, No noise from above bars. The room was very clean and in good shape. Closet was smaller than other rooms.

Notes: Have always stayed in Cat 5 and up, but had a great deal on a Cat 12 so gave it a try, and it was great. Cabin 2511 was quite and didn't feel the ruff seas others were complaining about. Did lose track of time without the window, but that is what wake up calls are for. The one bathroom was just like all other cruise ships, so worked it out, I still prefer the split bath, but again no big deal after all its about spending time on deck rather then in the cabin. I liked that is was convenient to deck 3 and deck 4 entertainment.
