We parked at EZ Cruise (if you book on-line ahead of time it's less $$) and dropped our luggage/kids off and walked back over instead of waiting for their shuttle. It's not far and it worked out well.
We--one couple, with 2 older kids + one kid's boyfriend--arrived early--about 11:30 and had filled in our info on-line so embarkation was a breeze. I love how friendly ALL staff on RCCL was from shore to ship to shore again!
Cabin, for 3 adults, was tight. The ship's showing a bit of age, although it was kept very clean. Likewise the mattresses felt older--and although we slept--as we love the SLEEPING on a cruise--we've slept on cruise beds that were more comfortable. Take your own pillow if that's important to you. Wish we had. Our cabin steward, Kerndall, was AWESOME! He had a night stand drawer repaired, removed the glass table so we'd have more room, and left the best pillow and towel animals. Always friendly, always a smile. Makes your cruise so much nicer! Don't understand why the fellas inside cabin had a curtain that could close off between couch and beds and ours, with 3 adults, had a curtain that is only 1/4 the way...Makes NO sense. They should ALL have full curtains. Also, no peep hole on RCCL. They need to install them in every door.
