Might be worth a call to X to see if you can at least get a better room given what you paid. We just gave in yesterday and paid a little more than we thought we would for a last-minute cruise (after final payment date), and now I'm watching to see if the price drops on a higher category so that I can call to possibly get that. Can't hurt to try...

Any other comments? This is the farthest forward balcony room on 9 Starboard. The rooms farther forward were oceanview rooms. There was a solid balcony divider between the balcony and the oceanview room next door, so you could not see the front of the ship without leaning over the railing. (Not an issue, but a question we had before sailing that no one at RCI could answer.)
