I'll start by saying that I'm platinum and I've never sailed in a "non SPH" inside room, so I'd love some opinions.
I'm hoping to sail on the EBTA next May. I was booked on the cancelled 2020 in adjoining SPH rooms with my best friends. We booked the rooms on platinum opening day. Of course, when we switched to 2021, SPH rooms were long gone. We booked adjoining outside rooms on deck 6. I know these are nice rooms as my BFFs sailed in one when we sailed Norway in 2015 - for that cruise we booked a balcony.
Anyway, we could save about $1200 by booking adjoining deluxe inside rooms. The $1200 would be a nice SBC, but I've never not at least had a window. Are the virtual portholes worth having? I mean, we won't be spending much time in the room either way, we always have adjoining rooms, we keep the connecting door open during the day and spread out in two rooms. I've sailed in multiple categories from Cat V on the Dream and the Fantasy to SPH rooms on the Magic and have been fine with all. My only "must haves" are adjoining and a split bath.
Would you save the $1200 and do adjoining insides or would you keep what I have (window on deck 6) and why? Thanks.
