All 3 a “fireplace family suite”


Night 1- 1am, woke up to a horrible weird smell. Grabbed T and carried him to the hallway.. went back in, turned off heater unit, called front desk, went back out to the hallway.

Worker arrives a few minutes later “we’re waiting on maintenance, but I can check it out.”

Goes in, comes back out and says that he definitely smells it, not sure what “it” is. Said he opened the balcony door to air out the room.
Super nice man, asked if I wanted a new room..or if I wanted to wait for maintenance who should be arriving in a few minutes. I told him I’d wait. Wasn’t sure if I was over reacting, maybe it could be that the heat hadn’t been turned on this year.. fireplace had been off for 30 minutes or so.. I went to sleep @ 12, timer had 30ish mins remaining.

Maintenance arrives, goes in, walks out “There’s no smell in that room.”
“Really? I woke up and it was so strong.”
Hotel clerk chimes in- “I smelled it too.”
Maintenance guy “There’s nothing wrong with that room. Fireplace is turned off, heat/ac unit is fine.”

Me “You’re sure, it’s completely safe?”

“Yes.”

“Ok, we’ll go back in. I’ll leave the balcony door cracked open.”

Go in with T, turn on heat, leave the door cracked. T falls promptly asleep. I went back to sleep. It’s 2am.

2:45am - T wakes me up. “Mom, do you smell that?” I do, immediately.

T went out in the hallway, I grabbed shoes and went to the front desk.

We got moved to a room across the hall. Move everything, worker helped us. We got to sleep. Almost 4am.

Phone rings at 7am- I answer- “Hi, this is the front desk, I’m so sorry but we accidentally put you in a room that was already booked for the night. Guests are arriving at 9am. They’re part of a block of rooms. I’ll find you another room immediately.”

Ugh!! I wake T up, grab our stuff and head to front desk again. They can’t find a room. Offered to let me leave my stuff on a cart while we went to breakfast.

Entered our new room 4 hours later.

Hu, if the ship had docked in the USA they might have full jurisdiction. Just like they DO enter the ship to confiscate and detain drug dealers.

They should have informed the FBI first about the camera. Cruise Lines are sneaky like that and try to hide facts.
DCL isnt that clean either. They tried to scrub and hide at all costs the child abuse cases that happened (and I mean.. the dirty type of abuse).

Yep, read about that years ago too.
It happened back in 2012 at Port Canaveral on the Dream before the ship sailed for the Bahamas. DCL has/had video evidence of it. Once they reached the Bahamas, they, conveniently, flew the creep back home to India at the cruise lines expense, instead of returning him back to Florida authorities for arrest and charges once the ship returned to Port Canaveral after the cruise.
Shame on DCL, and any other business entity that tries to cover up such.
I get that sickos sometimes slip through the cracks, but, if you try to cover it up for negative publicity reasons, instead of meeting and dealing with it head on, you’re just as f’d up and sicko as the sickos...

Just bought my tickets to the 2019 D23 Expo! I'm really excited about going again, but I am not a fan of the dates. It is the 23-25 of August, right before I go back to work. Counting down to it will be also counting down the days of summer away....

I'm still jealous! (Trying to recall -- is this the 2nd or 3rd time you've been to D23?) Even though the dates aren't the best, you'll still have a great time.

Just remember that DCL also flies non US flags.
I think only one ship of RCCL has a US flag. Noone of the main big companies have US flagged ships if I remember correctly.

Yep, they also fly Bahamian flags, as do some of Carnivals ships, and Bahamian authorities are notoriously deplorable in investigating cruise ship crimes...:greedy::greedy::greedy: :cautious: :cyclops:
And, DCL only has 4 ships right now (and, yes, I’m aware they have 2 more under construction)...Carnival has 25 with 4 more under construction.

Bottom line, considering the 2 cruises we’ve taken with Carnival were nothing short of excellent, and cost 1/3rd less than a mouse siting cruise, we’ll take it any day, for now...!!!!!!!!!!! :joyfull: :happy:
