Need help deciding on cabin

I was thinking of upgrading to cabin 1570 on the Explorer. I noticed it is right below the pools/hottubs. Is this a major concern? Has anyone stayed in this particular cabin? Also how much bigger is the balcony on this cabin opposed to a reguly cat D. And is the bathroom a larger? If anyone has any pics that would be fantastic.
Thanks.

1570 is a Grand Suite! Big difference from a D catagory. A Grand Suite on the Explorer is 381 sq ft. with a 95 sq ft. balcony. A catagory D is 202 sq ft. with a 50 sq ft. balcony. It's almost twice the size. No problem with the pool. You'll be near an elevator mid-ship.

Thanks SONNYV. Sounds like I have no choice now that you put it that way

grand suite 1570 is right below the hallway, not the pools

Its hard to really tell untill you have seen it. I was looking at the deck plans trying to figure out just where it was located. I was surprised to see this suite come avail so I got to thinking maybe it was very loud....which I don't think I would really mind. Would hate for there to be a leak in the pool if we were right underneath

Thanks.

I've been in a lot of staterooms and never had any problems with noise. I would be more concerned about the water below your cabin than the water above it.
