Emerald deck forward cabins-Star

Has anyone stayed in the balcony cabins on the Star/Emerald deck? These cabins are in the forward section of the ship. They appear to be covered and larger than most balconies. We have one booked but are wondering if we should consider a gty. I am wondering if the motion is really bad in this location. I know we will have a long walk to most places, but that is okay with me.
