Taking a four day cruise on the Wonder in May 2003 in cabin 8044 (DD, DM, DD5, DD4 and DS21mos) with my in-laws in 6586. Any info on these rooms good, bad or indifferent? This is our first Disney cruise any info would be helpful. Thanks.

I know 6588 is right across from the laundry facility. They are nice rooms, but the laundry room area seems to be a bit noisy as people are there all hours of the day and night and they tend to talk over the washer and dryer sounds. It is very hot the air coming from the laundry room too. I do know that room does have a verandah.

We stayed in 6588 during our 10/13/01 Magic cruise. The room was fine most of the time. Being directly across from the laundry did pose a few problems.

*Trying to catch a nap one afternoon when I heard banging on the door. Went to answer it and found a toddler hitting it with a plastic hammer. Mom was busy folding or ironing or something. The Mom noticed the third time I opened the door....never really said she was sorry.

*Noticed noise and alot of foot traffic 1/2 hour to an hour before the formal and semi-formal nights. Everyone needed the iron. So people stood in the hallway in line and talked.

*If the dryers were all being used, we could feel warm air coming in under our door. We were also able to see the laundry light under the door. We placed a rolled up towel at the bottom of the door and solved both problems.

BUT..........
We did not pick the room location. As a surprise for my DH & DS I asked for an upgrade at checkin. We only paid an upgrade fee of $358 from cat 10 to cat 6. Originally, we were quoted @ $1000 extra. So I was just happy to have a cat 6 room which was both my DH & DS's dream.

Our neighboring rooms were very quiet. We never heard anyone except those visiting the laundry. My DS always had the TV on, so we usually never noticed.

Your in-laws will probably notice some foot traffic, but it can't be any worse than being next to the aft elevators.

Even with the few inconveniences I feel that any room on either ship is better than sitting at home for a vacation. LOL

Have a great cruise.
