This was our 4th cruise, but our first with Royal Caribbean. Overall the cruise was good. I probably would not have booked this cruise if I had know this was the smallest ship in RC's fleet. The ride from Philly to Bemuda was extremely rough. The ship bounced around alot. Once we arrived at port, things were very good the rest of the trip. The food was better than some other cruises we were on, but not as good as some - I would rate it in the middle of the pack. Service was very good. The cabin steward was great as was our waiter and assistant waiter. There always seemed to be clutter in the hallways. Vacuum cleaners sitting around all day, food trays from room service sat outside doors for whole days. It was difficult to get into a hot tub because kids were occupying them, even though the sign said no one under 16 was allowed. Same way with the pool - full of kids. We tried to relax by the pool and read a book several days, but the live music at the pool was very loud and we had to move indoors. The ship was very clean and staff were always cleaning windoes and polishing brass. The windjammer buffet was easy to access and the food was very good.
