We are avid RCCL cruises, and this is our 10th cruise with them. First time for Grandeur of the Seas.
We drove to Baltimore and stayed at the Best Western Plus the night before. We used their park and cruise option that included transfers to/from the port, parking. The hotel also had a free breakfast. The cost for the hotel was a great value compared to parking at the port.
Port of Baltimore: Easy on and Easy off. Great port to sail from.
small but functional. It was enough for what we needed. Only complaint is the beds aren't tall enough to store the suitcases under. I always recommend inside rooms for families traveling with children. They love the pullman beds, and its dark when you turn out the lights at any time of day.Did not like the shower curtains in the bathroom, they blow in and stick to you.
