Been on the Gem twice. Noticed differences, as follows: No fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries), when same was requested in main dining room, request went all the way up to head of food. Told not enough fresh berries on board (no excuse for that)
No chocolate on the pillow at night.
Heavy pepper used in food preparation. Spicy seasoning even on lamb chops in Cagneys steak house. Only good main course there was the 12 oz. filet mignon. Not worth the $25.00 extra for other entrees.
cabin was midship and fine. Steward was excellent. Requested a blanket rather than heavy quilt and received it immediately.
