Maasdam Review

Additional details
EASY embarkation, maybe 10 minutes of wait before we boarded the lovely MS Maasdam. It took a while for all of our luggage to be delivered to our room, but it eventually made it there okay.
Pretty much immediately upon embarkation, my husband was approached by a steward selling beverage cards - we bought two right off (we ended up using three all week, and several other drink purchases).
We went to the Lido right away - YES there are trays. Food was okay, and I liked that they had sushi. Wasabi was VERY GOOD and VERY HOT!!
Cabin Review
Lanai Ocean-View Stateroom
The first sea day, we pretty much putzed around the ship getting to know where everything was. VERY easy ship to find things on, and our cabin C369 (which was an upgrade - thanks HAL!!) was in a primo location on the Lower Promenade deck. Three doors down from our own private balcony we called it! LOL The only complaint about this cabin is that you can see inside it at night. Which we didn't realize until about three days in. So we unwittingly provided entertainment for anyone strolling by…
AMAZING bed. SO comfortable, like heaven!! FAR superior to RCCL in comfort and size, of the bed and the cabin itself. The bathroom was spacious and loved the tub setup much better than the RCCL shower stalls. The only problems with our cabin was when we arrived there was mold in our toilet! ???? Blecch. We complained to the front desk and it wasn't a problem after the first day. Also, it took a few days and several requests for our steward to keep refilling our ice bucket to chill our champagne. After a few days he did it automatically and wasn't an issue.
We had no problems with the heat or AC in our cabin as several other past Maasdam guests have complained.
