How it's used
Refers specifically to the enclosed interior spaces of a vessel, whether for passengers to sleep or for cargo storage. While it can describe a passenger cabin, it is also frequently used in logistics to describe the hold where goods are kept. It carries a slightly more technical or formal tone than simply saying 房, which is why it is preferred when discussing maritime travel or shipping.
