I am new to this board and have a problem. I booked a cruise on Wed. and my T.A. booked me into the wrong S stateroom. Ther were on 2 S suites left and they were side by side, one was an HC and the other was a suite with a wraparound Verandah, We are talking about S6169 and S6167. I called him immeadiatly and he told that S6167 was allready taken and thus I had no choice. I used an on-line travel agent. This trip leaves in about 40 days and what are my options. Can any one tell me anything about S6167? I really need help here as it is our 35th Anni. I don't think it has a tub in it and my wife likes to soak..any info in that suite would be of great help. Thank You Ben

Thanks Tom the I wanted was 6169 and it was avail. but he put me in the cabin next door which is 6167, and when I discovered his mistake 6169 was gone. So I need to know what 6167 is about. It looks to have a huge deck. Thanks Ben

Hi Ben,
We will be in cabin 6158 on 9/25 (the opposite side corner aft from 6169).
I was fortunate enough to have a poster that had been in the aft cabin 6169 and we corresponded about the cabin, I believe you can view her photos at the following site (just copy and paste this address into your browser):

The first time we cruised on HAL was for our 25th Anniversary and we too had an "S" cabin aboard the Maasdam, what a wonderful cruise!! We were hooked on HAL after that first time and our first suite - WOW! The service was impeccible, food was good, staff were helpful and non-invasive - remembered our names from the first time we met each of them, and the suite immenities made us feel special (champagne, flowers, special invites, priority embarkation/deparkation, personalized stationary, wirlpool tub, and now the special suite lounge - of course the suite itself and the verandah were large and very comfortable.
You and your wife will love HAL and love the suite and it's verandah.
Have a great time!

Zuiderdam - 6167 - does not have a bath tub since this is a handicapped room.
The aft suites are smaller than the suites in the middle of the ship. Your verandah is a little larger than the regular suites.
