Review summary

It’s a wonderful ship with wonderful food and staff. Royal is starting to nickel and dime everything including charging $3 for small popcorn outside of the show venue. Minor but these things used to be free. Solarium is beautiful with the decor and atmosphere.

The ship is smaller but so easy together around. She is showing her age though.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Great location. I’ve never cruised on such a low floor but it was great since it was quiet. Also with getting off on port days on Deck 2 it was quick to just do 1 deck and not wait for the elevator. We had an ocean view in the shape of a circle. There was some rust around the porthole so I’m giving it a 4 instead of 5.
