      😂😂😂 we had to drink to get through that cruise 😂. Although I think we need a bit more leopard print to be true bet lynches 😂, but we’ll take it ❤️

    After the bush in the bathroom I was surprised no mention of the thick black slightly curly hair on the plate with the lamb main. We did our first cruise on MSC Euribia and the hygiene standards were much, much higher thankfully. I did find it a big huge party ship for us but it didn't put us off trying cruising again, trying a smaller line this time though :).

      😂😂 I know, I have no idea how we didn’t spot the monstrous hair on the plate! Even when editing it back!! It was only once we watched it on the big tele, that we spotted it 😂.
      Thanks for watching 🤗

    We spent 10 days on there. Never once did the room get hoovered. I was in contact with somebody on Facebook who was coming into our room on the next departure. I left 2 chocolates under the dressing table to see if they'd clean it. Nope. Still there

    I was on at this ship at the same time I noticed some food and drink in the mini bar fridge someone had obviously left in there from before being an open cup you’d get from the buffet and also hair ties and other things about. Wasn’t overly fussed but a rushed job

    • @TheDoddolds
      @TheDoddolds  4 месяца назад +1

    Hmmmm....I'm thinking I'm glad we're only booked on for two days. The room being dirty would be my biggest nightmare. Fingers crossed my vlog is a bit more positive, but I have zero expectations. p.s Sprouts are the best!! Great vlog...looking forward to the next (but also kind of dreading it!)

    Independence Day!? You must’ve been on this cruise a week after us!! How funny! Oh dear…. sorry to hear your cabin was not cleaned properly and your poor experience with the staff. Glad the Supervisor was apologetic, the thing is…. mistakes are made, it’s going to happen, but just no need for the attitude 😞 Thanks for the video 😀

    • @TheDoddolds
      @TheDoddolds  4 месяца назад +1

      Yeah exactly, we’re very much ‘see how they deal with the mistake’ type people rather than getting angry at the mistake itself (if that makes sense). Hope you had a fun time…. Will be giving your latest video a watchy watch this morning ❤️

    I think it’s an affirmative that yes the food can get worse (hard as that is to believe, given day 1). Love your vlogs, thanks so much for sharing, perhaps another cruise line should be on the horizon., and any confrontation instigated by someone else is never a good thing, thought you both sounded very calm, given the circumstances

    Hi,
    Such a shame you started on a bad note with the dirty cabin and attitude! When we did msc (years ago and different ships) they were spotless i was really impressed especially because of all the shiny surfaces! Juat for info, if you do a a Royal Caribbean ship with a robot bar the drinks are inlcuded in the drinks package, no fancy cup though, and the robots do a dance when they arent busy! Hope you still enjoyed your mini break! Xx

    Your making it sound worse than it was, you like you said went to your room straight away when you got on you left your stuff on the floor I. The room, when we boarded we put our stuff in The wardrobe so it was out of the way. Also you’re also making the marketplace out to be worse than it is. You have to just embrace the MSc cruise and not be so uptight. The abba show is great yes and the dancing is not as bad as your making it out.

    • @TheDoddolds
      @TheDoddolds  4 месяца назад +1

      Hi, appreciate the comment but, I’m not sure how a couple of small bags on the floor would stop the shower from being cleaned! Also, as we said, our main issue was with the attitude of the staff, which was unacceptable. As for the Marketplace, we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one. I don’t agree that we’re being uptight though, as we said in the video, we still had fun regardless.
      Thanks for watching.

      Hey - first of all thanks for watching and taking the time to comment :) I would say though that this video is a fair reflection of our experience. We do make it clear in the video though that we understand, with it being a 2 night cruise, that the service we received might not be representative of what you might get on a longer trip, but we still wanted to be honest with what we encountered.
