Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The room was comfortable.....Cleanliness? Cleanliness was lacks. Complained about finding used condoms in one nightstand and their wrapper were on the floor between the bed and the window. My wife noticed them when she went to look out the window. . Also, I asked that the linen be changed via the room Stewart. On return to the room, the bed was made but the linen was not changed. Bar soap was not replaced and had to call for soap. Discussing and disappointed!

Ship tip

18% gratuity is a little high
