Review summary

First RC cruise. Unclean cabin windows, and had to re build 2 drawers which basically fell apart. Stayed front right of deck 4 so noise of anchor and ropes was loud and vibrated room in /out of ports. Cabin attendant did his job but hardly seen him (in/out like a flash) Other regular RC cruisers advised us to not be put off and to try a newer ship because even they had noticed the difference at how tired it looked on their return visits. (Rhapsody now the oldest in fleet) Staff pleasant and welcoming, food plentiful but similar menu every evening in anytime dining restaurant. Entertainment rather poor unless you constantly want to watch the Cruise Director if not on the stage on the TV! There was however a band named L'ements who when they were on got the crowd rocking. Formal nights not as formal as we are used to with P&O. More suits and ties for men rather than dinner suit. (So husband although looked the part felt overdressed) Itenary was great and enjoyed all ports but times in and out varied and for some felt we didn't get long enough. This ship is however ideal for those who may not want to get lost on a larger ship (why many retired people said they came back) We met some wonderful people only happy to share their cruising knowledge and look forward to revisiting RC sometime in the future but on a newer ship as recommended.
