How do you find the temperature in the public areas on cruise ships?

Recently, one poster mentioned that the public areas were freezing. I have found that to be true in some areas of ships. Other areas are too hot. It must be hard to regulate the same temperature throughout with doors opening all the time. I bring extra sweaters with me just in case. Do the varying temperatures on a ship bother you?

I always have a light sweater or wrap because of the temperature variation.

The Sunshine was always chilly for me so I wore sweaters all the time that I was indoors.

I find the ships' interiors to be extremely cold, and I've caught bad colds because of it. I do take jackets/sweaters/shawls with me.

I am pretty happy with cruise temps, but the last ship I was on Carnival Valor,that beast was cold all over the ship. They got a good a c on board. Next time I will bring a jacket

I think that with the pool area open to the outside temperature, you will find the whole deck warmer. Also thekiitchen areas will heat up the buffet sections. I have found that sometimes one side of the ship on that deck will be cooler than the other.

I almost always bring a sweater when I dine out in FL. The A/C units in restaurants are usually set at low temperatures.

I have been on 9 cruises and have yet to have really any issues with temps anywhere on a cruisehip. I'm sure it happens but honestly if our room is too hot or cold I typically adjust as needed.

Never had a problem with public areas. Always have a problem in the cabin. Never can find a perfect setting. I'm either too hot or too cold.

The DH prefers it cooler than I do, so he tends to be happy in the large auditorium(s) and I need a jacket (sweater or shawl). The real "shocker" was our trip to Alaska, we had to go inside to warm up not cool off.
