Royal Caribbean is cutting corners and it shows.

INTRODUCTION
We are a couple in our 40's and this was our tenth cruise. We have cruised on Celebrity, Disney, NCL and Carnival before and this was our second time with RCCL. Our previous cruise a couple of years ago was great and we were very satisfied. This is the reason we choose RCCL again this year.
Unfortunately this time we could see that RCCL has cut some corners to save money and it shows. But we still had a good experience so I would still recommend RCCL but read this review to know what to expect.
Cabin Review
Interior Stateroom
Very nice stateroom. Big and functional. Good use of the space.
Port Reviews
Copenhagen
The port we preferred. We booked the "Free walking tour" on the web and we were completely satisfied. We got a great guide. Interesting, funny and knowledgeable. They work for tips and it shows. The quality of the tour is so good that they get very good tips and they deserve it 100%.
Helsinki
We went to the Suomenlinna fortress and this was the highlight of our day. The kids loved it. The rest of the day we walked around the city and visited Helsinki Lutheran Cathedral (just average), Uspenskin Cathedral (good) and Rock Church (very good).
Stockholm
We wanted to do the "Free walking tour" again but we missed it so we just walked around the old town. This is a very nice place to wander around. We also visited the Vasa Museum. It has a great history but it is a little expensive for what you get.
