Who here has written on a Viewliner Bedroom? Would you prefer them or a roomette? Since there are only 2 on a train, is noise from a neighbor a factor?
Obviously I mean "who has rode on."Who here has written on a Viewliner Bedroom? Would you prefer them or a roomette? Since there are only 2 on a train, is noise from a neighbor a factor?
This is some good advice. I think we will do this. Thanks.I am assuming there are two of you. You didn't say. If only one, a roomette is usually a much better deal.
We have done both many times although lately we go when roomette prices are low and get two across from each other (you have to call to get that) as we can both get bottom bunks.
BRs have the enclosed toilet/shower but the shower down the hall is bigger, clean and never had to wait (except waiting on her to use). Two in a roomette is somewhat tight and one has to take a walk so the other can use the toilet unless that doesn't bother you. There are no spare toilets unless you go through the diner and cafe car and use one in coach.
Use amsnag.net if your travel is flexible. I have seen roomettes dirt cheap at times and sometimes as expensive as a BR.
Remember, in both cases, two in a room means one has to climb up to the upper bunk.
"Are they worth the money"? Depends. Compared to coach on overnight? Compared to one roomette? Depends. Splurge once and see it. If going round trip do outgoing in roomette and return in BR as otherwise roomette will disappoint you after the BR even though it sure beats coach.
