Ever Been On A Cruise w. An Indoor Room (No Window)?

I am going on my first cruise next week. We are leaving from San Diego and going to Cabo abord the Carnival Elation ship. It is my first cruise . . Can't wait to go. I didn't get the room with the window though . . do you think that was a bad move? Overall do you think it is important . . or is it like Vegas where you aren't in your room for much anyways except for sleep & knockin boots.
I always go for the lowest rate, which usually means I have an inside cabin (though not always; I was placed in a very strange cabin that wrapped around an emergency stairwell which had two portholes; easily the best cabin I've had). Portholes are nice, balconies are also nice, but I'm basically a cheapskate and would prefer to spend the savings on other things.

I am rarely in the stateroom except to change clothes or sleep. At times, I might watch a movie on the tv, but that is usually before I go to bed. I read books or do puzzles in public areas, by the pool, or in some of the public lounges.

There are differences in the type of inside cabins. On most ships, there are two twin beds arranged in a "L" formation. This isn't good for honeymooners. On my last cruise on the Dawn Princess it was two twin beds pushed together. I'd have preferred a real twin or queen bed or just a single bed (I travel alone); the dimensions were so tight you had to crawl on top of the bed to get into it.

One nice thing about inside cabins is they are dark without the lights on, which means you can sleep late without sunlight from the porthole
