A Grand Suite on the Carnival Sensation - U98

Around one thirty we decided to see if our Cabin was ready. There had not been any announcements about cabin’s so we decided to go look. I figured that the decks would be locked down if they did not want us on them.

We were in room/cabin U98. This is a Grand Suite on the Upper Deck in the middle of the ship. We had an extended balcony as well.

There are two twins that are connected into a king. The bed was VERY comfortable. After the hard ass bed we had the night before, this was blissful.

From

There is also a couch, a chair, and an ottoman. The couch is a pullout bed if you want to shove a few more people into the suite. It has more then enough room for more people.

The fridge never got cold. It stopped things from being warm but I could not grace it with more then being a bit cool. It was not cooler then the AC. The AC kept the room cold. Tim said he could do with more air flow and resolved to bring a fan the next trip.

There is also a chair behind me as well as the door. There is a lot of room here.

The door stays open by itself. Getting something to hold the door open had been a lot of discussion. We did wedge the chair in front of it just in case while we played with the lock. The lock and the handle are separate so you will not lock yourself out unless you turn the actual lock from the inside. There is a lip to get back into the cabin and Tim and I both tripped over it several times until we got used to stepping high.

The bathroom also is a step up. The light switch is on the outside and it is at normal level. Therefor, if you try to turn it off from the inside of the room you almost fall out. The tub is very tall. The lip of it was above my knee. The shower was in the center of the tub which was also odd feeling. It is very deep but not very large through the center.

From

The tub is nice and deep to lounge in. However, if the ship is rolling be careful about stepping into it. It is high enough that you are very much off balance stepping in. There is a rail and the counter is right there.
