Ship experiences

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

This room had it dust ruffle coming off. Our room steward only did one towel animal. My Daughter had an allergic reaction to the shampoo and conditioner. We had only one bar or soap to shower and wash our hands with. The good part it was close enough to and elevator. The beds were nice to sleep in. Size is a little cramped.

Ship tip

Be aware of the adult trivia if you don’t like that.

We went to the service desk because of my Daughter’s allergic reaction to the shampoo/conditioner and we told them the issues. They were supposed to send us something different. We didn’t get anything. I also know it was to short. We won it. But we will travel now with our on shampoo and soap. It’s rare we have issues. As for embarkation the computer’s crashed. No where to sit. We stood outside for hours. This has not changed my wanting to cruise RC. I am booked on Adventure in March.

Anything less than 5 nights is too short. Cruising is so much fun, a short cruise doesn't make sense. As far as only having 1 bar of soap, that's what your cabin steward is for. He or she would have been happy to give you more each day.
