Review summary

The dining experience and food and Entertainment very good. The cruise seemed overwhelmed overworked and not very happy. Lots items are shipped or broken in in operative. The fruit on the ship were merely and not very good but possibly because of the time of year.. Coke and ice cream dispensers for most of the time out of items or not working. The coke at the bars was more syrup and soda and not worth drinking. Small items as popcorn it shows robes 4 the rooms and decent bath towels we're hard to find the beds have sunken places in them and they put foam pads on top to try to compensate. I took a cruise on the Allure of the Seas, which is the sister ship and didn't have any problems whatsoever period big disappointment

Picalo, please elaborate. What happened on NCL? I'm deciding between Oasis, NCL Escape or maybe CCL Breeze.

Just got off this ship on Sunday. It was my 9th cruise and one of my favourites ! The ship and service were awesome. Not one complaint. My first cruise with Royal Caribbean and not my last. I loved the Oasis if the seas.

I went on the Oasis in February. It was the best cruise I ever went on. No more smaller ships for me. Service was great everywhere. No problems whatsoever. Loved the bed with no problems sleeping. I wanted to take it home..lol. sorry you had a bad experience

gwaddill, considering you have no other cruises under your belt, I'd hold off on the negative rants until you have another cruise to compare it with.

Was on the April 9 sailing. One Freestyle near Sorentos was not operating for a couple hours. No big deal. Just had to wait a couple mins longer to use the next machine. Don't sweat little things. They do need more Freestyle machines and dispersed better. They have four machines at rhe Windjammer but not accessible after 10pm...

we came off Oasis last month and had (surprisingly) one our best cruises ever. The service was very good but I know sometimes it is a luck of the draw and we were lucky. Our mattress was very good (expected bad). I remember seeing one Freestyle machine broken and a non-working elevator. Anyway, sorry you had a poor experience.

I got off the Oasis last Sunday... we had a blast... everyone was very nice...didn't use the coke machine so can't speak on that... I did bring my own bed topper on so I never have a bed problem... the ice cream machine was broken once but then was good the rest of the time... the food was amazing... and the shows were amazing

Reading this post was difficult, you should really proof read your rants before sending them out.
