Notes: We were in cabin 2564 on the Reimagined Magic for 3 nights. This was our 10th DCL cruise, but our first in an oceanview on Deck 2. I was very nervous about not having a verandah, but, we would book this cabin again (if verandahs weren�t available or were cost prohibitive). Being just about 4 months after extensive drydock, the living portion of the stateroom is essentially new. The carpet, sofa and table, bed and nightstands are all brand new. And, the bedding has been replaced with the newer style linens, crisp white comforter, and foot dust cover. Even the steamer trunk was replaced with a brand new dresser. The split bathrooms, however, have not been upgraded, though they were clean and still provide a good experience. This cabin only sleeps 3, but is an ADJOINER, though it is not displayed as such on the deckplan. While you can hear noise from Edge in the hallway, it did not carry into the stateroom. But, we did experience some noise from the neighboring cabin. This stateroom had no noticeable creaking at night when sailing (no shims), but there is a constant low-frequency humming and some additional medium-frequency mechanical noise every 5 minutes, which made getting to sleep a process. On port days, as soon as the ships docks, Maintenance starts pressure washing and the water hitting the porthole wakes you up (so don�t plan on sleeping past 7AM). Being midship, it was an easy walk aft to usually empty elevators straight up to Cabanas or Palo. It was also an easy walk forward to the usually empty elevators straight up to the Spa. Just walk up one flight of stairs to Lumiere and walk forward for After Hours, or walk aft for Carioca. Just walk up two flights of stairs to Guest Services or shopping, or walk forward for the Theatre, or walk aft for Animator. Best of all, just walk down one deck for port debarking.
