Beds need new pillows! this was probably the worse part of the cruise as I couldn't get a good nights sleep. They are hard and flat and have been used too much. An easy fix. And had to ask for robes. I froze the first night as the AC was too cold. Slept in the robe other nights even with thermostat in heat area.

Ship tip

See the shows. Get at least one breakfast in your room. Ask for robes( they used to put them in every room. Now you have to ask for them). Don't show up at noon on the Lido Deck during a day at sea and expect pool side chairs, and complain about it. Eat at Chops one night. ENJOY YOURSELF!
