So my and my husband and out two friends just booked a 11 day trip in april around the ionian sea (hurray) and I'm wondering about the bed linens. Can anyone advise me on wether it is worth it to bring my own? I don't want to sleep for 11 days on paper sheets.
Oh I'm all excited. :o

:eek: This is the first I've heard about paper sheets, what makes you think they're going to have paper sheets? We're doing the Greek Isles and Turkey cruise in May and we definitely sprung for the daily maid service. I would think those towels and sheets would be a bit funky after a few days. Anyone out there with past experience care to comment on the bed linens and towels on easycruise?

It's nothing I have heard about the cruise specifically I just have had this experience on night trains and things so I wanted to be cautious.

I had no qualms about the bed linens on Easycruise One, and at home I'm a 1000 TC sheet snob. (Nope, they weren't like the ones at home, but they were good enough)

The bed linens are fine on easycruise. Comfy duvets too. The pillow was ok, but I usually use two - I never asked about a second pillow, but brought a feather one along that I squished WAY down in one of those vacuum packs. Maybe I should have just asked.
Springing for maid service is one thing I might have considered. If I do it again (I've already done easycruise twice) I probably will.

I have booked in June for the same cruise + the 4 days, from what I have read somewhere the sheets are fine, but somebody else might say for sure! I have not booked any daily clean, but im told they do specials !

I would confirm that the sheets + duvet are AOK . You do only get 1 pillow per person but you can collect extras from the desk.

Sheets were fine. Towels were large. We did not end up getting new ones but would have after 7 days. I highly recommend you pack a small squeegie as the bathroom gets wet and sometimes the water pools in an area away from the drain. Also, I packed a couple of these little tiny towels that are about the size of a (fat) poker chip that turn into a bigger cloth with a little water. They were great for a quick clean-up of the bathroom and then tossed

Perfectly fine towels and sheets. Every 4 days, we got new towels and were happy to have nice dry ones. After one week( we were on for 14 days), we had the cabin cleaned and new sheets and towels again. Not expensive and nice to have a new feeling cabin.

Do not worry you will not have paper sheets. In fact the bed linen is very clean and comfortable!! And the towels are good size. They do replace them about half way through at least they have always done that with us!
