mamaehen Posted June 16, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Small cabin, tiny bathroom. Many packing tips include bringing air freshener.

spookwife Posted June 16, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 16, 2018 poo pourrit or whoever its spelled. add a couple of drops BEFORE you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurin612 Posted June 16, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 16, 2018 poo pourrit or whoever its spelled. add a couple of drops BEFORE you go. I agree about Poo-Pourri. It really works! A little spritz in the toilet before a #2 is all you need. Also, I bring a Febreze small spaces air freshener. I’ve had several room stewards comment on how nice and fresh our room always smells.

JoyMouse Posted June 16, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 16, 2018 I like Ozium air sanitizer. It clears orders quickly without a lot of perfume. I can find a travel size bottle at O’Reilly’s Auto Supply and I’ve seen 8 oz bottles at Walgreens. You can get it online at Walmart. It’s expensive from Amazon.

Rare Lionesss Posted June 16, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 16, 2018 We buy the travel size lysol spray, use it around the cabin to spray areas that we hope had been cleaned, but you never know:o..................................... and than keep in the bathroom as room freshner and spray when the need arises. Works well and serves its purpose. Safe travels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnjen Posted June 16, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 16, 2018 It's something we forget to bring, and on Anthem, noticed a urine stench from the toilet area. Wish we had brought bleach because it's badly needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He washed down the drains with bleach and some sort of deodorant. No more stink the rest of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RG306 Posted June 16, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 16, 2018 We bring poo-pourri for the bathroom and glade ultra for the cabin. Lysol to go just for my own comfort lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone found a bathroom air freshener that actually works? Want to get rid of stinky smells fast! Bath and Body Works also has small size room deodorizers. They work extremely well and lots of scents for you to choose. Clorox wipes are also good, but, as others have said, ask your cabin steward to wash it all.

He washed down the drains with bleach and some sort of deodorant. No more stink the rest of the week. Probably more important than the use of bleach and deodorizer was the simple act of adding liquid to the drain trap. The bathroom floor drain (the one outside the shower) is a common culprit for causing odors in the cabin bathrooms. These drains do not see water on a regular basis, and the dry air from the AC evaporates the water in the trap. Pouring a glass of water down these drains every other day or so will prevent these smells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lionesss Posted June 17, 2018 #19 Share Posted June 17, 2018 One way to solve the problem is make your "donation" at the nearest restroom instead of the bathroom in your cabin........... I mean, its like going to Vegas What happens in the restroom, stays in the restroom. And You will never see or (smell) these people again. Saying for a friend. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saunalick Posted June 17, 2018 #21 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I agree with Lioness, make the "donation" at the nearest restroom. Problem solved. Every time I travel, I look for the nearest restroom, never have stunk up a room. Now only wish my travel companions could get a clue as to why I disappear for a few minutes????

tx121 Posted June 17, 2018 #22 Share Posted June 17, 2018 At least the toilet was in a different room of the cabin! When me and a friend sailed on Norwegian Epic where the toilet and shower were inside the cabin, that was uncomfortable since there was no privacy besides a curtain. Wish we had poo pouri! After Day 2 we agreed that if we needed to use the bathroom for #2, we would use the public bathrooms around the ship! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chengkp75 Posted June 17, 2018 #23 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Well aware of the dry trap issue. Doesn't solve the smelly BM issue. Wasn't responding to the #2 issue, but to the posters who complained that their bathroom smelled even without a contribution by them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted June 17, 2018 #24 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Must have clogged nasal passages on all of my cruises, as I never had a continuous odor in the bathrooms, other than the initial dump and that odor disappears as soon as you power flush.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
