Review summary

Royal Caribbean has always been great! If you ever have a problem, let somebody know and they actually do seem to care. I wish their food in the windjammer was higher quality and actually served at the proper temperatures. I don't understand how they actually have chefs on board and they can have cold cuts or lunch meat along with cheese just sitting out that is room temperature for hours. Their meat such as their burgers and hot dogs are nowhere near the proper temperatures when they're being picked up at the buffet. My burger literally was actually cold. Not just room temperature but actually cold somehow. I think it was because the lettuce and tomato that they had on it cooled the burger down that much because the burger was not hot at all to begin with.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Main dining for dinner has been good. I know they just changed their menus for 2023, but it seems to be the same old things. The Windjammer food is far below average. The burgers are always cold and undesirable. Their sausage and bacon has to be the lowest quality in existence. It's actually disgusting. What surprises me is that COVID just magically disappeared. 🤣. This has nothing to do with COVID regarding only 2 hand sanitizer stations in the entire buffet room. One at the very end of each buffet room. Sure, most people wash their hands when they come in. However, there are many people who lick their fingers while they're eating their food and then go up to the buffet and get more and touch all the utensils. Then you go behind them and touch the same utensils which is spreading all kinds of germs all over the place. Again, this has nothing to do with COVID this just has something to do with spreading germs unnecessarily.

We got lucky and got a virtual balcony interior cabin. Nice feature. I think it's better than an Oceanview Port hole.
