Review summary

Royal Caribbean always does such a great job. I love their dining and layout. Wish there were some more mid-expensive jewelry options. I love the EFFY shop, but everything was way to pricy. I needed some options in the $100-$500 range...I just can't see spending thousands for jewelry on a cruise ship. When I asked how much they sold, they said it was tough, no big sales on this cruise. People would buy things if they were quality, but in the cheaper range. Just a suggestion.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Size was great and it was always spotlessly clean. Repairs needed: Room needed some updates/repairs. Glue to stick pictures showing on the bottom of the artwork, railing on the room patio needed sanding and new varnish, bumper for the toilet seat was too high so it was noisy when opening the toilet, otherwise the Junior Suite was great.

Ship tip

Love that there is an ICE SHOW on a cruise ship. Those skaters had to do some pretty fancy work on a very small ice platform!
