This was our 15th cruise. Had it been our first I don't think we would ever cruise again. Let's start with our cabin. We purchased a belcony cabin. Our belcony door handle and latch was broken so every wave made it open and shut. The cabinet doors on the safe cabinet would not shut so they were open most of the time. The faucet in the sink was broken. The shower curtain was short 4 rings so it looked like it would fall down any minute. The belcony was filthy.   The entire ship was dirty and falling apart. In the buffet water was running out of the ceiling for 5 of the 7 days.  If your a smoker you will love this ship. I'm not. The entire casino is smoking and the ventilation system does not work great so you can hardly breath walking through.  Half the pool area is smoking. Very gross.  The nightly shows are just slightly better then a high school play. It's also the same show everynight just different songs. Very disappointed. If you like trivia you will love the daily activities. That's about all they do.  Ports were very nice, no issue there. We hit rough weather witch made us late getting back to Baltimore. Took 3 extra hours getting off for some reason that know one could answer. Once we were off, they had every one exiting the parking lot at the same gate they were letting the new guests in. Giant cluster f..k.   We won't cruise carnival again.

If you have cruised much you will know that all ports are not the same.  This was our 14th cruise. We have sailed out of a lot of ports. Galveston TX was the best by far. The line was short due to a ton of workers checking us in. Once we got through the metal detection line we were on the ship eating lunch in 15 minutes.  It was awesome.  Thank you Galveston. We also had our luggage by 3:00. We have never had it that quick. Nice job Royal.  The cruise was just as good. Staff was great.  Our only complaint was in Belize.  No port there, had to tender in which once on the tender boat took almost 40 minutes to get in and out.  Honduras beach was very dirty (garbage everywhere and floating in water that you had to swim through) and we had people selling stuff in our face the entire time.  Would not go to either place again.  Love cruising and love Royal Caribbean.  Ship has an Ice skating rink that they have an Ice Show on, seen many, this was one of the best.
