This was my first cruise out of Baltimore and I couldn't have been more pleased. Parking was easy, check in was easy, boarding was easy - in fact, from parking to boarding took less than a half hour. Disembarking was just as easy, if not easier. I will definitely cruise from Baltimore again.
The Grandeur is an older ship, that cannot be denied, and you will notice this if you have been on newer ships. That being said, the ship is updated and extremely clean. I enjoy the smaller ship setting. Within a day, I knew my way around and felt very comfortable.
Enough cannot be said about Ricky, Andre, Des, Katie and the entire cruise director staff. They were fabulous and kept the party going whenever they were around. Ricky was witty and upbeat, and his staff were equally entertaining. They made the trip more memorable than it would have been otherwise.
Room was cozy, as all cruise ship rooms are, but had plenty of closet and drawer space for two. Our cabin stewardess kept the room neat at all times.
