Sail Date: Sep 2015
Cabin: Suite with French Balcony

Our first Uniworld cruise (Castles on the Rhine) was our last. It was overpriced, the food was worse than a hospital patient on a bland diet gets and our "suite w butler" was barely larger than the lowest category stateroom and we never saw a butler. They advertise more staff to guests (~120) ratio tho we consistently have received better service on the Allure/Oasis of the Seas w 6000 guests. Shell in lobster salad and stinky bad fish two nights in a row is inexcusable. The morning cook never learned how to make eggs. The best shore excursions cost extra. The cruise would still have cost a lot of we had purchased the cheapest cabin.

Cabin Review

Suite with French Balcony

The furniture is uncomfortable and too big for the space. The most roomy part was the bathroom.
