We were on the Alaskan cruise r/t from Vancouver. May 6-13, 2015.
Just a shout out to anyone who's booked into the early, traditional dining. It is NOT at 5:45pm, as all correspondence from them stated, but at 5:15pm. We were late on our first night, and not allowed to sit in the dining room. Instead of apologizing for THEIR mistake, the MatreD was rude. This did not make for a good first impression!
The second day, we ate at The Crab Shack, which was an extra expense. We expected great quality seafood. We were highly disappointed. The waitresses seemed uninterested in anything, and did not crack a smile.
The cabin was in a great location on the ship. Right next to the stairs and elevators. We were next door to our friends, and able to open the balcony door, so it was shared. Plenty of storage space, although shower was hard to maneuver in. The bed seemed bigger than a queen. Possibly even a king? LOVED having the balcony!
It did not disappoint! Definitely the icing on the cake! The park ranger that the cruise ship picks up, did a wonderful job of narrating the experience.
I'm sure it helped that we had perfect weather!
