Where are self laundries on Elation

[karen2cruz]

Hi - We'll be going on Elation in October and need to squeeze scuba gear in luggage; so will need to do laundry 1/2 way thru (less room for clothes). Where are the laundries located?

 

Thanks

I remember one of them being on the Upper deck mid ship. There should be at least 1 or 2 more. We had 3 on the Spirit on different decks, fore, mid and aft. Keep in mind that they are busy on sea days. Usually 2 washers and 4 dryers. My only pet peeve was that there is no time posted as to how long a load takes to wash and people tend to "forget" and wet clothes seem to hold up the line. One washer had a load in it for 2 hours. I finally got peeved enough to go back to my room, get a bag, open up the bag with scissors to make it larger and nicely laid the clothes on an ironing board. I was just finishing folding up my last load and in came a very tipsy woman (it was about 11AM) who started screaming about someone "TOUCHING MY SH*T" and I'M GONNA KICK A**" Believe me, I pretended ignorance. She was not a tiny person. A college aged guy came in that had waited patiently for nearly 4 hours to do his one load and he let her have it about being an inconsiderate b---- and she was lucky that her sh*t wasn't dumped on the floor. I left and when the guy saw me later, he told me he wished that he was the one that pulled her stuff because he wouldn't have been so nice.

Thanks Pellitib - I have had to "gently" remove and set aside laundry on past cruises too - sorry that "lady" was rude. Probably same type person who is rude to everyone- room stewards, waiters, etc. Luckily, I have never met the people have forgotten their laundry.

 

I guess, I'll explore the ship, since it's not on Carnival's website.

I dont know the exact location, but there are 2 on every deck with cabins. Usually fore and aft.

There is a laundry room on the Elation on the Upper Deck, across from U154, U156.

How much do the machines cost? Is soap available and how much do they charge for it?

 

thanks

Quarters are available from the Purser's Desk or the casino, if you don't have any.

 

Bring detergent, etc. in double bagged ziplocks.

 

There is an iron and ironing board in there, too.

 

I didn't use the facilities. There was a crowd every time I stuck my head in there.

it was $2 per load on washer and dryer....i used the iron 5 minutes after i got my bags....so we didn't have to iron the rest of the cruise, no line at all
