Review summary

The crew was very impressive and friendly however there was a garbage/fowl/waste smell from the rear of the ship the entire 9 days of travel. i heard many people complaining to guest services however guest services wasn't able to help at all. i also heard rumors from the onboard crew that was different from literature that the EXPLORER OF THE SEAS distributed that addresses the smell. i didn't believe any of the literature the EXPLORER OF THE SEAS distributed. the reason for the smell was based on people flushing items down the toilet they're not supposed to.
