Review summary

Great crew, but RC has better boats than this one.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
They were training their trainees on my time

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food at the buffet was plentiful, but not high quality. The food and service in the dining room was high quality...except for the first night.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
The pool, bars, casino and water slide were fun, but one of the slides was broken down which made the wsit time longer....and i asked the life guard...there was no one on board who knew how to fix it.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The musicals were well put together, but one of the male leads couldnt hit the notes, at times. The juggleing show was great, though some ladies got into a drunken brawl and there was no security around to remove them. The performer did a great job overcoming the incident, though, to continue his act. The comedian wasnt all that funny and kept starting a skit, then get on a tangent and never finish it.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
There is no set time when your room will be attended to. Sometimes he got to it in the morning, sometimes late afternoon. Except for the first night, the dining room wait staff was very friendly and efficient. The bar staff was great.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Common rooms were clean and maintained, though we've been on other ships of RC which had better art work decorations.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Decent size room, but an overweight person would have difficulty getting in the tiny shower. Also, the light to the bathroom is on the outside of the bathroom, so you yend to wake everyone up using the bathroom at night. Finally, if they put you in a room overlooking the center where the stores and bars, the tooms arent soundproof and the music may keep you up later than you wish.

Ship tip

Dont waste money on the soda package. This boat has no vending machines in which to get soda. They only have canned soda and the earliest you can get one is 6:30am...by standing in the starbucks line....after that, you have to go to a bar or dining room to get a soda....they do issue you a cup, but its pretty worthless without the soda fountains.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
They tell you to show up at 8:am, but the line starts forming at 6:30.

I'll give you a tip. Buy you one of those small battery operated/rechargable motion lights (many have a magnet on the back) and put it in the bathroom. It'll maintain a lot of Harmony if you have to get up in the middle of the night
