Default deck plan question

i there, i booked an 8b balcony room on carnival online for the Sunshine/destiny. There are 4 of us (2 adults, 2 children).
The deck plan, however, seems to show only a king sized bed and 1 upper pullman. ( room 7290)

has anyone ever stayed in this room/type of room?
Is there room for 4 or have i made a big mistake?
many thanks
dee

If you received confirmation of your booking then you will be okay. Most likely the sofa converts to a bed.

It looks like the deck plans are wrong...again. Not unusual. I'm seeing 7290 listed as having an upper bunk & a sofa bed, so you're good. I would still call & check to make sure that the 4th bed is not a trundle, just to be sure.

7290 8B 185/35 sq ft
Beds: twin/king-1 upper-1 sofabed
View: window and standard balcony
Bathroom: shower-toilet-sink
Features: flat screen-TV; telephone; 110 AC current; individual climate control; hair dryer; safe; 3-closets; desk and ottoman seat; sofa and coffee table
Balcony features: 2 patio chairs and table balcony partition opens to: 7288
Smoking permitted on balcony only

I know rollaways are used on the Destiny. I wonder if they will still be used on the Sunshine. That might account for the additional berth.
