We were in a balcony cabin and only hairdryer and soap were provided. Don't know if you get anything else if you're in a suite (possibly robe) but they have a "green" policy so don't provide many toiletries. Quite honestly, we always take our own anyway as find some "hotel" brands not to our liking.

You're right and I will do that. at least I don't have to drag my hairdryer. Thanks so much.

Hairdryer, soap and shampoo are provided in all cabins. Bathrobes are in superior balconies and suites. Your cabin telephone has a wake-up service should you care to use it, and the TV when on has a digital clock. I would bring your own travel clock, and anything else that's important to you.

Thanks, will do. Can you tell me if the smoking issue was very overwhelming? I am looking forward to my trip.

There is smoking alllowed in some of the bars and the casino and the port side of the ship on the pool level. I absolutely hate smelling smoke and found it was quite avoidable. There is no smoking in cabins or on balconies. We were first time cruisers and just loved MSC. I guess it's because we had nothing to compare it to but we just couldn't find anything negative. You'll have a great time!

Thank you very much. I too am a first time cruiser and hate the smell of smoke. I feel better after reading your post. I do appreciate it. thanks.
