About quad rooms

[Sez]

So are all the quad rooms now only fold out sofa beds (cruising in Australia), I am very disappointed as who wants to share my kids dont and paying all that money and you don't even get a proper bed. Anyone else feel the same.

I believe it will depend on the ship and type of room. I know some ships have the bunk beds that fold out of the wall, but a different room category may have a fold out bed from the couch.

Both ships in Australia have only fold out loungers I checked. Its all the new ships that do.

You might want to consider booking two connected staterooms (or adjacent even).  It probably cost a bit more, but there are definitely benefits to doing so.

No different than booking 4 in a hotel room really.  You get sleep space for 4 not 4 separate sleep spaces.

I consider a pull-out couch to be an upgrade over the old pullman's.  I think most would rather that than climbing up into a narrow bed.

Sometimes the price difference isn't as much as you would think.  Often the rooms that can hold 3-4 are more expensive for passenger 1 and 2, compared to a room that only has double occupancy.

Kids don't seem to mind "bunk beds"; they often prefer them.  Especially if it means they don't need to share a bed with their sibling.

Tell them “you get to go on a cruise, deal with it!!”
