Hello, i read your 3 post. The post about staying at a hotel at the port, does not say what port you are staying at?? I would try reposting it, to let us know what port you are talking about. I am only familiar with New Orleans and Long Beach. I am sure everyone else can help you with all the other ports. We stayed on a Junior suite, on the Explorer. That was our 1st balcony room, it was awesome. I am sure the sq. footage is bigger than a OV on the Majesty, so it will be better for 3 people. By the way, which itinerary are you on? Enjoy your cruise, Lil' Lori
