On Eurodam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Noordam, Westerdam, Oosterdam, Prinsendam, Zuiderdam: Every single Stateroom has a cooler (HAL does not like to use the word refrigerator as they don't get as cool as some medicines that require "refrigeration" need... but they will get beverages cold...)
[
On the rest of the HAL fleet (and note the above says NIEUW AMSTERDAM... NOT  Amsterdam ) If it has a verandah, it has a cooler!

7034 on the Rotterdam was great.  It is the only suite on that deck with a shower only (no tub) but this was not a disadvantage since I am partially handicapped and a walk-in shower is ideal.  I haven't figured out why they didn't put a tub in this one cabin but there must have been a reason.  The large balcony had two recliners and a table and four chairs and we spent a lot of time there.  We had it on the Black Sea, Israel, Egypt run in October 08.  We got this as an upgrade from a B so we were more than content.

I took these pictures of the “refurbished” Rotterdam January 4, 2010. It is cabin 7059, which is the last cabin aft on the starboard side.  It should be noted that this is one of the new cabins, added at drydock (December 2009.) We had lots of problems with this cabin, mostly plumbing issues, which hopefully have resolved. Photos January 2010

We stayed in Verandah Suite 7062. The cabin was lovely. The balcony was a bit smaller than other balconies and occasionally we heard some scraping from the retreat one deck above us.

Also, we did get a fair amount of vibration and movement from being in the back of the boat. None of these were so bad, these are just observations. Photos 2010
