    If I know you like I think I know you, I would say no. You might not like the dated rooms. You would miss the variety of dining options on Oasis class that you are used to. And you may/may not get laundry, which is important to you. Also, I think the longer a sailing is, the less appealing this package becomes. Cost goes up and you would have more than 2 people. 
     
    Maybe @AshleyDillo can answer the housekeeping question.

    Lunch was at El Loco today. They open at 12pm on Nassau port days. I had totally forgotten that El Loco was completely out in the open here on Freedom.

    That is exactly it for us too. If I was in a GS or above, this package would not even be on my radar. And without it having gone on sale and being part of the spend to save challenge, I never would have done it. 
    We have complimentary VOOM with the package here on Freedom. That was one of the things I counted in the value of this package.

    This morning we are at Nassau. Looking at the construction on the Royal Beach Club, there seems to be a lot more to do before December. 
    Started off in the SL to make my tea. Same breakfast items as yesterday. I tried the Berliner because my sister asked me to. It was pretty good. I think I liked it better than the regular chocolate donut and the cinnamon roll.

    Then I headed off to Chops for breakfast. I should have taken a pic of what I ordered today but didn’t, because it did not look that appetizing. Yesterday, I asked if they could make avocado toast. Sometimes they can in CK. They said no, because they did not have any avocados. But the waiter did say to try again tomorrow (meaning today) because they might have some. So that’s what I ordered today, avocado toast. I should have already known something was up when they asked if I wanted toast with that. What showed up was exactly that, two slices of toast with a sliced avocado on the side. It was tricky to eat lol.

    I often wonder when he is now….
    UDP is a good time to try new things 😉
    Yes, not much taste at all. Good source of protein too.

    After Izumi we went to the Royal Theatre to watch Marquee. We have seen this before but neither one of us remembered it. It was your typical non-QN/OA/IC class show. 
    Because we ate early tonight, we asked for a post show snack delivery. This is one of the things I love most about having a genie.

    Hubby and I watched a bit of Snow White while snacking on popcorn. I did not want to. D16 told me all about how “not good” it was but Hubby wanted to see Gal Gadot in it. We did not make it past the 40 min mark.

    We are not raw fish people so we don’t eat sushi either. But as you can see, there is plenty to choose from even without sushi. Some of our favourites are: wonton soup, dumplings, tempura, fried rice, chicken karage, firecracker spring rolls, and of course, ramen and udon noodles.

    So tofu is out I guess? lol. 
     
    You guys make me laugh!  I have nothing but good intentions here.

    You can get it with chicken, but we usually get tofu. So that’s tofu. I love tofu. 
    I vaguely remember seeing it once in a @twangster blog and it looked like travel size bottles. But we have never received them. And we are past 340. 
    To be continued….lol
    Cookies…yes! Daily delivery.
    Crowds…thumbs down. Lots of crowds, everywhere, and kids. Many running down the hall, while making lots of noise, even past midnight. But at least they are not my problem 😁
    Will sum up what I think of this program in my final thoughts….

    No, I am not surprised at all by the inconsistency.
    They did have Malin & Goetz either in our room, I asked for it to be switched. 
    We have been D+ for a while and we have never received the D+ toiletries lol. I don’t even know what they look like.

    Dinner at Izumi was good as usual. Noisy though because this Izumi on Freedom has 5 Hibachi tables and there is no separation.

    Another super lazy day but we are in no way complaining. This is exactly how we like to cruise and why we love cruising. Hubby. Dinner plans in a bit are back to Giovanni’s. We purposely kept eating light today because I knew I wanted the pizza. After dinner we are going to check out the comedian onboard. I might regret this, but Hubby likes watching these things.

    Sorry. Both Hubby and I are both not veal fans. If my parents were sailing then maybe….

    I've had that twice... first time I thought it was one of the best entrees I'd ever had on a cruise, second time it was salty and the veal was covered in so much of the other stuff that I didn't like it at all. I'm one who usually gives things another shot (lots of stuff is inconsistent and you can get a one off bad version) but that really put me off of it. I guess that's a vote for me to try it again on our upcoming cruise.

    Not sure. I was in an oceanview but I'm a night owl and slept in most days past when the morning housekeeping would have been.
