5 Things Cruise Cabin Stewards HATE

Creator's Key Takeaways
Number five, brushing or sweeping crumbs or dirt under the bed, under the desk, or under or some other obscure area that's difficult for him to get to.
Number four, leaving your do not disturb sign on all day. They have dozens of cabins to clean, and if you block access to yours for hours on end, it can really mess with their schedule.
Number three, making multiple small requests every day. They prefer if you make your requests up front, and they will try to accommodate you and fit them into their schedule instead of being interrupted constantly.
Number two, taking your mattress off of your bed or dragging it out onto the balcony. This creates a lot of extra work for your cabin steward, and on most major cruise lines, it is prohibited to drag your mattress out onto the balcony.
