Thanks for sharing your cruise experience. I’ve found that the mattresses do vary by ship in regard to comfort. Sorry that yours was so uncomfortable. For the most part, we’ve always had comfortable mattresses on all our Royal cruises.

Sorry to hear of your discomfort. Do have to agree though, some beds are hard as a rock! Thank you for your review.
