Avoid a Cabin by the Laundry

.
I just came back from a cruise, and was grateful I didn't have a cabin near the laundry room. On some days of the cruise, people were lined up with their laundry down the hall, talking loudly outside other people's cabins, and blocking their doors. Obviously, people should be considerate while waiting for their turn at the washers and dryers, but it was clear to me that one of the worst cabins on the cruise would be near the laundry. Remember to carefully study the map of the ship while selecting your cabin, and avoid those cabins that are near gathering places, like the laundry, stairs, and elevators.
