In a clip on her Wanderlust Alley YouTube channel, she said: “Believe it or not, yes, I do actually live here but I understand that this is not your typical house.
“For me on this ship, managers are guaranteed a single room and porthole, yey.”
Despite having her own room, she still has bunk beds which lets her have a separate sleeping and lounging space.
Showing inside her private tiny bathroom, she said: “On this class of ship we don’t have single shares.
“Here it is in all its glory.
“Not going to lie, it’s probably the smallest shower I’ve ever been in.
“Personally I don’t have an issue with it, it gets the job done.”
The dancer shared how she has to “get creative” when it comes to shaving her legs due to the small space, and typically puts her leg up against the wall.
One of Alley’s top space-saving tips is to invest in a plastic shoe rack.
She said: “It was only $5 (£4) and it is by far the best investment I had when coming to the ship.
“It holds my stuff so perfectly.
“I like to keep the shoe rack on the inside of the door so when I close the door it feels like all my things are shut away.
“For that reason I wanted to make sure I had a plastic one as it’s going to get wet.”
Alley showed the storage units around her desk and bed, and another essential item is her jewellery holder.
Believe it or not, yes, I do actually live here but I understand that this is not your typical house.

The fabric pouch lets her keep her necklaces and bracelets organised and protected.
The highlight of her room is her neon light system, which she can programme from her phone.
Alley shared: “It was only $15 I think from Amazon. These things are a game changer, they change your environment so much.
