Review summary

Just completed an amazing 8 days aboard Freedom of the Seas. We had been on Freedom in November 2017 and had a great time. The only thing that was lacking on that cruise, was the below average service the MDR. I'm delighted to share, that the the service that we experienced in the MDR was superb! We had the absolute greatest servers and head waiter. Windjammer was also very good, and the service there also was better than we've ever experienced. Even the food quality, which we always enjoyed, seemed even better. Every show was excellent, as was all the live music in various venues throughout the ship Freedom does show some wear and tear. Nothing major, some stains in carpet, chips in bathroom vanities and edges of mirrors etc. Just the expected damages that occur on a well used ship. But it is kept very clean and well maintained. The crew are constantly sanatizing, picking up cups and plates and maintaining the common areas. Our room was always clean and everything worked as expected. The crew is superb! Very friendly, knowledgeable, happy and always willing to help. You can tell that they truly want everyone to have a great time. Only minor issue, was finding lounge chairs by the pool area. Many chairs hogs leave towels and a book on several chairs early in the morning, then show up later in the afternoon, if at all, monopolizing the chairs all day. Pool attendants do watch for this, but aren't too aggressive unless someone specifically complains. Not faulting RCI for this , since this happens on every ship. We just went to the pool after breakfast, and usually managed to find a chair. If we were leaving to have lunch, we returned the towels and let others have the chairs. Late afternoon there were more available chairs. I have taken many photos, and lots of food photos which people always ask for. I'll post these Iater. So I give Freedom of the Seas a solid 5 Stars and highly recommend it!
