Sleeping on a Cot on the Boudicca and Bath vs Shower Only

Hi Everyone,

I'm a third person in a room in a Balcony Suite Cabin. They said I have to sleep on a cot. I have to sign some paperwork saying I'm ok with that. Has anyone slept on a cot? Just wondering how comfortable that is. Also how are the rooms on that boat that only have a shower and not a shower/tub? I have never sailed on Fred Olson before. Usually Norwegian or MSC. Just wondering the difference.

Thank you!

That seems a very strange term for an adult bed - do they mean an upper bunk I wonder and they want to be indemnified in case you fall out and get injured.

No matter what response you get here I would contact to Fred and ask for clarification. As they are asking for you to sign something, I would make that enquiry by email, or ask for the clarification to be sent by email or letter, so you have that in writing. An email enquiry will take a few days to be answered though, so may be better ringing in the first instance - that will also tell you who you should be making contact with.

Good luck,

Barbara

According to their website, these are intended for use by children only, so I assume they must be small. So it may be OK if you are a little person, but not if you are big! I expect the indemnity is so that you do not complain that your feet were sticking out the end!

In response to the original post, if you would like us to look into your booking and clarify pleasecontact us with your booking reference and query on internet@fredolsen.co.uk and we will be happy to do so for you.

Kind regards
