IBRelaxin2 Posted October 15, 2005 #1 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Strip the bed when we arrived to add the two twin size Memory foam mattress pads I got and then remake it? And if so what should I tip? Do I just leave the pads on the bed with a note and the tip... or call him. I'd attempt to do it myself but I'd never get the sheets on right again. I have two bad discs in my back and I have to sleep on the foam or else I wake up in terrible pain, last cruise I was in agony even in the new beds. I got lucky and picked up two on clearance for only $4.99 at Target (90% off), so I was hoping to get them put on the bed. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jleq Posted October 15, 2005 #2 Share Posted October 15, 2005 If you ask him/her to do so, I see no problems. I'd probably tip $5 dollars. Maybe more, if it's a difficult chore to put the pads in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliot Ness Posted October 15, 2005 #3 Share Posted October 15, 2005 ........add the two twin size Memory foam mattress pads I got and then remake it? And if so what should I tip?.......I don't think that would be a problem at all, especially if the request is accompanied with a picture of Andrew Jackson ;). If you see him/her/them when you first go to your cabin just ask them to do it when they get a chance before bedtime (that first day is pretty busy for them with all the special requests and luggage sorting). If you don't see them, then I would call and try to talk to them in person about your request so they understand and you can tip them in person.

serene56 Posted October 15, 2005 #4 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Leave it on the bed--leave a note on top of it--explaining what you want done. Print a note will be much easier to understand. he/she will probably do it at night when the beds get turned down. Lots easier. Dont tip til its done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yst347 Posted October 15, 2005 #5 Share Posted October 15, 2005 On each cruise I introduce myself to our steward and I give him/her twenty dollars. I tell him the money is a down-payment on his/her services. I am not very demanding; infact I really only want my soft cooler iced on cruises without a fridge or fridge emptied. I have never received bad service....never. If service were ever really bad, the twenty the would be the tip. If service is what I expect I tip the standard tip at the end in addition to the twenty. If service is really good I tip over the standard at the end in addition to the twenty. I worked for tips most of the 1980's when I was putting myself through college. I learned early on that you usually get what you pay for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momanme Posted October 16, 2005 #7 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I think they would do it for you. It might take them a while because they are quite busy the first day of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
