Longer cruises...housekeeping details

[jbhcw]

Our longest cruise was 11 days on the Maasdam several years ago. We're doing Hawaii in April. Wondering - do they change the sheets once a week? Do you need to request this or will they just do it for you? Guess I will just ask our cabin steward when we board but all you longer cruise cruisers out there...what has been your experience? Thanks:):)

Yes, the sheets are changed, but I've never noticed the schedule. Guess that means they're changed before they need it!

We have had the sheets changed every 3 days on some ships and every 5 days on other ships.

Doesn't seem to be a set rule.

We've been on 15 day cruise on HAL and the sheets were changed at least twice a week, oftener if needed. I had a bloody nose during the night that got blood not only on my pillowcase but a couple small spots on the sheet as well. Not only was there a fresh pillowcase, which I would expect, but there was also a fresh sheet that night also even though it had just been changed the day before.

I found the same thing on our 26 day cruise. The sheets always seemed fresh so I never questioned the schedule---or noticed.

Cross that little detail off your list of things to worry about.:)

Thanks everyone for your answers:) Have always been satisfied with the room clean-up and sheets on a 7 day..so just wanted to be assured they would probably change the sheets a few times on the 15 day:D
