Hello. We have done 2 cruises with our teenage son, in a 3 person room. Our most recent cruise with him was on the Freedom. Because it was the inaugural cruise, the prices were outrageous. We decided to book the cheapest inside cat. The room was 152 sq.feet. Boy, did we feel like sardines packed in a can. It was so cramped, we took the tables on the floor, and put them on the little couch in the room, just to give us more floor space. During the day, the stateroom attendent locked the bed back up into in space in the ceiling. The bed fit into a cut out space in the ceiling, so it was flush with the ceiling when it was locked up. At night, he unlocked it and it hung down. That was ok, I didn't mind that. The problem seemed to be the lack of floor space. Fortunately, our empty suitcases fit under the beds. My husband and I unpacked at different times, just so we could have the extra space of one less person in the room at the same time. I thought the closet was very small, we filled it up fast. Most of the time, our son wasn't even in the room with us, and we still felt very cramped. If you can afford it, I would suggest a bigger room, especially if it is a longer cruise. If we go on the Freedom again, I will definately book a larger room, most likely a balcony. I guess it depends on how tolerant you all are to cramped quarters. Hope this helps.
