All of RCI's ships have "updated" bedding...pillowtop mattresses and new duvets....you should be quite comfortable! I used to call the old bedding, "dog beds", since there was always a "hole" in the middle.....looked like what my dog would sleep in!

Not anymore!

I'm sad to say that since 2009 RCL have gone backwards in this area.

I have just returned from 14 days on Voyager of the Seas touring New Zealand and found the beds anything but comfortable. The mattress was hard, even with the addition of two duvets on top of the mattress. So hard that sleeping was uncomfortable. To add to that, the pillows supplied (four of) ranged from rock-solid to thin and unsupportive. After only a few minutes you felt like you were resting your head on rubble.:mad::mad:

This view was also supported by other passengers that we mixed with in the dining room.

Accommodation:

Deck 7, balcony cabin.

I have just returned from NZ on VOS with (wait for it) 900 kids on board. Total stated passengers was 3,900ish. Very busy. [ex Sydney 8JAN16]

I can honestly say that the kids were of no real concern at all. Some of the "young teens" had a tendancy to run but were routinely told to stop that and it did peter out as time went by.

To me, that says that there was ample entertainment for them on board.
