The person who cleans your cabin and would take the bed down and up is called the room/cabin steward. I had this cabin type before on the Epic and we were 3. So my daughter slept on sofa.

@@Vincente_Guerrero I have to tell you, we never had a bad meal on the ship the entire cruise. It was all fantastic! But, if we HAD to pick a "top 3", they would be, (in no particular order)... #1: We LOVE O'Sheehan's Bar and Grill! Located on deck 6, it's open 24 hours. It has just awesome comfort foods like Fish & Chips, (our youngest daughter's fav), a Rubin sandwich to die for, (my fav), Chicken Pot Pie , burgers and hot dogs. #2: The Manhattan Room. Located on deck 6. This is the ships main dining room. Awesome steaks, braised lamb Shank, Baked Gulf Shrimp, and amazing New York Style Cheesecake and Chocolate Caramel Louse. YUM! #3: Le Bistro (the ships French restaurant). Located on deck 5. There is an extra fee to eat here, $20 per person cover charge, but it is SO worth it!! Best Escargot I've ever had! Breaded and baked in Garlic Herb Butter. OMG! I had the Grilled Beef Tenderloin followed by warm Apple Tatin for dessert. Reservations are highly recommend for this place. Also, If you are traveling with children 12 or under, they can eat for free off the children's menu or 1/2 price from the speciality menu. Hope this helps you. I will say again, every place we ate on board was excellent. This includes the buffet. One if the biggest buffets I've ever seen. They have everything! Enjoy!!! 😉❤️☮️

@@Vincente_Guerrero I completely forgot the last part of your question... The bowling! Just put in for a time you'd like to bowl. There are 3 lanes and there are TWO bowling alleys! One is inside O'Sheehan's Bar and Grill on deck 6 and the other in is the Bliss Bar on deck 7. A charge of $5 per game applies. This includes your shoe and ball rental. I only saw one couple bowling the entire cruise, so lanes we're always available. However, I've heard this varies from cruise to cruise.

Thank you for the tour. My friends and I are taking this ship in Oct. embarking from Rome and returning to Rome. I would prefer to wash my hands post toilet before I contaminate the toilet door and have to go into the room to the sink. No wonder NCL decided to not build the two sister ships.

The Rome to Rome trip was the cruise we took. We had such a great time and it's all here on our channel if you and your friends what to check it out and get a few tips on what to see and eat, not just on the ship, but on all the shore excursions. Thanks for watching! Have a GREAT trip!

We honestly never had a problem with it. Everything is very well vented, so no "smells" in the room. The ship itself is one of the most beautiful we've ever been on. Food, service & entertainment we're all top notch. The room was very comfortable and the bathroom area never was or became an issue.

Even with the curtain closed, if somebody enters the room from the hallway, then there is ZERO privacy. Also, when you walk out of the shower into the hallway, you're walking on carpet with a dripping body. When using the toilet, you have to use your dirty hands on the door handle so you can walk over to the sink to wash your hands. While washing your hands, in the middle of the night, after toileting, then you can easily wake up the people who are sleeping. This entire toilet/shower privacy issue (plus hygiene issue) would be enough for me to pass on booking on the Epic. My other concerns would be that the bed is full length right down the middle, great for one person. But when sharing a bed, I would expect feel would be hanging off of the end. And, not sure how a curved couch with no arm rests would offer comfy seating. And the person sitting close to the door is facing away from the television.

Hello Dominic. Don't know when we'll be on the Epic again. I wish I could say it will be soon, but unfortunately I know it won't be. I believe the next cruise we will be taking will be in 2020 and we will be going to the Greek Isles. We will be traveling on the Norwegian Star. Look us up and like our page on facebook under WheretheheckaretheAlbans. Thanks for watching!

It's funny how quickly you adapt to things. It turned out to not be a problem at all. The curtin worked fine and everything in the toilet area is very well vented out.
