Review summary

I enjoyed all the entertainment and activities provided on this cruise. The Quantum of the Seas is a beautiful ship, and all the crew were wonderful. The only complaint I have is the beds were very uncomfortable. Also, Seattle and Victoria ports were not the nicest but that is not Royal Caribbean's fault.

Cabin / Stateroom

The beds were extremely uncomfortable. We notified the porter assigned to our stateroom. He added padding to them with no help. It was like sleeping on the ground.

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington

1 out of 5

Seattle used to be a great place to visit. Unfortunately, today it is unsafe. There were homeless encampments almost everywhere, people doing drugs out in the open and prostitutes on main streets. I will never go back there.

I have taken this cruise once before to Alaska. There are a few things that you have to overlook when you go to a major city, & one thing is homeless people. I can't think of one big city in the US that doesn't have homeless people in it. I am just grateful that it isn't me. There are rough areas & there are very nice areas everywhere in the world. If you can look past that, I found Seattle & Victoria are beautiful cities.
