Seeing how I live so close to Port Canaveral and I love RCCL, my friends and I are usually on the Sovereign. I think I've cruised The Sovereign 4 or 5 times. The only time that I ever noticed an odor was in the hallways after there had been REALLY rough seas. The Sovereign is wonderful for 3-day cruises as it has just enough to do.
I just got off the Sovereign a week ago today and the other only odor or smell I noticed was in our bathroom. And it was just a sour smell coming from the shower curtain.
My husband and I have taken this cruise twice. No order either time, this is an older ship, but has been revamped recently. If I could go every weekend I would. Your Cruise is what you make of it. Have FUN and RELAX! RCI takes care of you and SMILES never hurt. Good Sailing. Rich& De
My husband and I went with 4 other couples for my birthday and we had a great time on this ship. We sailed for Halloween last year. NO odors. Lots of fun!

I went on this cruise on 8/11. We stayed on the 8th floor. There was an odor in the hallway but it didnt effect our rooms. We brought air freshner and sprayed the hallway by our door and that seemed to do the trick! I am going on the same ship again on 9/29. You will have a blast
I will will be on the SOS Oct. 9 anyone else on this sailing?? We hope to have a great time as I am taking my 3 children for their fall break. Does anyone know if there are many children on this ship at this time of year?
