Review summary

Went on the 7 day western Caribbean cruise, loved the staff & crew, do NOT buy the internet package, it cost about $150 & they have covered themselves from having to refund anything with the clause " We are not responsible for reception ". Well there is barely any reception, I even took it to the top floor & went outside under a starlit sky & still very slow reception, we were supposed to be able to stream but you only get a few seconds then it buffers for a while, then we bought a soft drink package at $70 plus & there were 3 stations that you could refill at, 1 of these was broken most of the cruise, one other didn't have Diet Coke most of the time, so you had one station to refill or take to a bar to get a soda, if you like tea or lemonade these come with the cruise & were good. The meals in the main dining room were delicious, had very good & tasty meals the whole trip. There was a sewer gas smell in our room & in the elevators, don't know what caused it but it didn't smell good!!!

We will be on the Rhapsody next week. I hope these issues are fixed by then. I would hate the sewer smell and I am addicted to Diet Coke so I hope that's fixed, LOL
