Sailed on my first cruise with my brother (his first cruise too) as guests of Caesars' Entertainment. Embarkation was fast and painless thanks to VIP check-in for casino guests. As someone else noted, we were the second group to board the ship which was terrific!
Vicki and her husband Howard organized and hosted a meet and greet which was a wonderful way to meet a few fellow passengers. It was really well organized and fun -- Thanks Vicki!!!
Our inside stateroom had enough storage for both of us, and although a little cramped was sufficient for the amount of time we spent there. Our room steward was Tito and he was wonderful. He was always available, friendly and helpful and made fun towel animals -- with eyes :oP. Guest services surprised us with a bottle of wine one night, and Casinos at Sea treated us to cookies/chocolates a few times!
