What is it that makes a class "D" room better than an "A", etc. Is it just the level? I am going to be on the Empress for my first cruise on the Elation in E144, is that a good location?

If the number is the same in both cases, the answer is the deck is higher whenever the letter is higher. No physical difference in the cabin. E144 Is a good location.

So what about the number, 4D, 6D, etc. What does the number distinguish? Is that just the difference between say... a porthole, picture window, obstructed view, etc.?

On Carnival the numbers represent varying types of staterooms: inside, outside, balcony, etc.
The letters after the numbers represents the deck it is located on and a specific type of room within that category: porthole, picture window, etc.

Here is the list for Carnival:
1A (inside stateroom) *this room is the smallest and cheapest
4A (inside stateroom)
4B (inside stateroom)
4C (inside stateroom)
4D (inside stateroom)
4E (inside stateroom)
4F (inside stateroom)
4G (inside stateroom)
5A (outside stateroom with 2 portholes)
6A (outside stateroom with picture window)
6B (outside stateroom with picture window)
6C (outside stateroom with picture window)
6D (outside stateroom with picture window)
6E (outside 'family' stateroom with floor to ceiling glass window)
7A (balcony with obstructed view)
8A (balcony stateroom)
8B (balcony stateroom)
8C (balcony stateroom) *extended balcony on Spirit class ships
8D (balcony stateroom)
8E (balcony stateroom) *extended balcony on Spirit class ships
8F (balcony stateroom)
8G (balcony stateroom) *extended balcony on Spirit class ships
8H (balcony stateroom)
8I (balcony stateroom) *extended balcony on Spirit class ships
9A (Carnival's special staterooms) *these are often formed behind stairwells or elevators where there is a lot of space left over and Carnival can not fit a normal size room in them, these are often a very good deal!
11 (Suite, also known as mini-suite)
12 (Pent-house suite) *there isn't anything special when it comes to Carnival's suites as compared to other cruise lines
