Cabins Sovereing of the Seas

We are be going soon on the RCC to the Bahamas for 3 days from Miami.
This is are first cruise, we have outside cabin in Deck B. I found out
that this deck is in the botton of the ship, so I want to know if any of
you out there have been in this ship and in this deck. What can we
expect in the way of noise or the air condition,? I think that we will
be too close to the ocean and to the ship engine, also I found out the
cinema is in this deck,

I took a cruise in 1989 on SOS. I was in 3604, which is one deck up,
and almost at the forward bulkhead.
No trouble with engines, but we did get very friendly with the
anchors and bow thrusters. We alway knew when we were getting
into port!
After extensive analysis of the deck plans of SOS, I concluded the
forward most cabins on 2 deck were marginal, because of the anchor
and bow thruster noise. The cabins that back on the theaters might
also be marginal. All the cabins are too far forward to be bothered
by engine noise. In any event, there is a deck of crew cabins below
2 deck that should protect you from miscellaneous machinery noise
pretty well. None of the cabins appear to be beneath the galley, though
a few are beneath the dining room, and these might be marginal.

We did a 7 night cruise on this ship, same deck, inside cabin. SMALL inside
cabin, probably much more bearable for a short cruise than it was for a
week. I still remember peeling the shower curtain off my butt every time I
took a shower.
The cabin we had was very quiet. Heard complaints from some people in
forward cabins that the noise from the anchor chain almost scared them half
to death when the anchor was lowered or raised. Loud, but it didn't last
long. The air conditioner worked real well, no problems there.
Over all, I liked the ship but I did find it crowded at times. When they
converted her to do 3/4 night cruises, they added more 3rd and 4th berths to
some cabins. I'm sure that this didn't help the situation.
