Review summary

It is always nice to cruise.  This time it was disappointing though.  Room was not as clean as it should be.  The drawers were not wiped clean after the previous guest. The carpet needed a good vacuuming.  The mirrors were dirty.  The bed could not be separated due to the large couch in the room.

We ate at the Wind Jammer for all our meals as we were given the 8:00pm seating in the dining room.  I did request the anytime dining.
 The internet service was way too expensive.  I think a smaller window of time and a smaller price would have more people using it.

Cabin / Stateroom

Cabin was crowded. Had a very large couch in it. Bed was hard to get around especially at night. isle way was very narrow. My husband stubbed his toes two or three times.

Ship tip

This ship is in good shape for its age. The public areas are very well kept. Shore excursions are extremely expensive. Most of the staff is pleasant and always accommodating.

of course every one will have different opinions on this cruise but this one  was mine.  Royal Caribbean has always delivered its best as far as I am concerned in my past dealings with them. 

If I had to have all these negative experiences I am glad to came in just one cruise!
