Last cruise they always organize my stuff and clean the room but now they just do the bed and clean the bathroom. And the auto gray was extremely expensive.

My meal in the MDR would likely cost me $40 in a restaurant, meaning a $8 tip. That's almost the day's gratuity and the day's gratuity also covers all meals, house keeping, and other attendants. Unless you're just someone that doesn't tip at restaurants it's hard to argue it's high.

I think the gratuity is reasonable. And I alway clean up my room. They change out towels, refill ice bucket, do bed, and leave new info and a new critter! I guess I don't want them touching my things. They are the room attendants not my maid. When you break down the gratuity in days between the room attendants and your dinner servers it really isn't alot.

I always organize my own stuff. Keep organized the whole cruise. That’s the way I live at home. Don’t expect others to pick up after you.

“Auto gray”? I assume this is automatic gratuity? Weren’t you aware the price before you decided to cruise?
