WE GAVE MSC A CHANCE AND REGRET IT | Trying MSC for the First Time Did Not Go As Planned

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creators, known as the Cruising Sisters, document their first experience aboard the MSC Seashore. After recently sailing with Royal Caribbean, they provide comparisons regarding ship amenities and service. The embarkation process is described as seamless, though they note long lines and a lack of familiarity with the ship layout. While they find the vessel modern and beautiful, they encounter several challenges, including long elevator wait times that lead them to prefer using the stairs. A significant issue arises when their assigned cabin has a strong cigarette smell, necessitating a room change facilitated by guest services. The creators also evaluate the food, noting that the buffet exceeded expectations while the formal dinner was disappointing due to unappealing main courses. They conclude their first day by attending a pool deck party, which they describe as a high point of the experience. Their observations cover various aspects of the cruise, including the coffee quality at the onboard cafe, the availability of amenities, and the overall atmosphere of the ship.

Creator's Key Takeaways
We have heard very mixed reviews of the food on board, so we're excited to try it ourselves.
We absolutely hate complaining. That was not fun. I was very stressed, but we couldn't stay in our room.
