Interior Cabin
The most affordable option for guests who want a comfortable spot to recharge. An interior is the perfect place to recharge your batteries. The most affordable option, these staterooms feature two twin beds or a queen-size bed and the basic amenities you expect, from a flat-panel TV to an in-room refrigerator.
