Life Onboard: Third Class: Amenities
Staterooms
The rooms in Third Class weren't as nice as the rooms found in the upper classes, but they were better then typical 3rd-class on other ships. The rooms were found on the lower decks or in areas that weren't desirable for anything else. Single men and women were divided by the length of the ship, men were found on the bow, while the women were in the stern. Families were kept together, though.
Dining Saloon
The Dining Saloon was actually 2 rooms that were divided by a watertight bulkhead. The walls were white and decorated with posters of the International Mercantile Marine.
General Room
The General Room was decorated with pine panelling and sturdy teak furniture. It was the equivalent of a lounge.
