We stayed a few room before that room. It was close to the elavators and quick and easy access to deck 9 for water and drinks. We like the location so much that we are booked again for the same room.
As far as noise is concenred, It is quiet most of the time except when the ship have to turn. It is most noticable when returning back to Cape Canaveral. Occasionaly we can hear noise upstairs from Parrot Cay. It all depends if you noise bothers you or if you are in the room a lot to listen to the noise.
Oh by the way, we love the porthole, nice and bright whenever we are in the room.
Hope this helps.
