  Handicapped Category J Inside Stateroom (SUITE) on Star Princess, #E716
A PARNAMI Cruise Page
Innocuously hidden away, aft on Emerald deck exist two inexpensively priced inside handicapped cabins, numbers, E716 and E 717. These are the SECRET handicapped cabins of Star Princess!!
 Seemingly, just like any of the ship's other 10 inside handicapped cabins, these two are special. These are VERY special! While their pricing would indicate them to be the most modest of all such cabins on board, the fact is these are no ordinary cabins! These are SUITES in every sense of the term! Except for their lack of a window, they are superior in accommodation to any other handicapped cabin on the ship, INCLUDING those classified as mini suites!
 Passengers entering these cabins do so into an alcove, walled by a row of wooden doors that are the closets. Turning left, they will continue on, past desk/vanity area and large handicapped bathroom to the adjacent sleeping area. The sleeping area contains two twin beds configurable to form a king, and flanked by two WIDE night tables, not the skinny ones found elsewhere on the ship. A tall chest of drawers faces the beds and contains a 20-inch TV.
Following around the corner from the closets, is the sitting area, containing a full couch, two chairs and coffee table. Flanking this area is the unstocked wet bar, refrigerator, a SECOND 20 inch TV and cabinets.
 The bathroom floor is completely flat with no raised threshold or shower area. Passengers may wheel themselves directly into the shower without need for assistance. Grab bars surround the entire shower and toilet area.
Surprisingly, for more money, you have the option of booking higher-level accommodations, and foregoing: the twin TV's, wet bar and spacious sitting area.
For anyone willing to live without a window, these, truly, are the bargain secrets of Star Princess Cabin accommodations! SHhhhhh!!!
Although information is somewhat obtuse, my guess as to these cabins's square footage would be that it is about 385.
