Let me start with this: the cruise wasn't terrible, just nowhere near the standard I expected from RCL.
We've previously sailed with Carnival - which cost us much, much less with a much higher, friendlier standard of service - but we were prepared to pay the extra for RCL for what we thought was going to be the "next-step up" in cruising experience. We were wrong.
Balcony room was well laid out, but bed was terrible. Fridge was broken took 4 days to fix. Phone was broken took another two days to fix.
Cabin was well laid out - bed was pretty awful. Extremely hard, was killing my back. Also, don't forget American and European plug adapters!
Only way into town is to pay for a shuttle
Walk into town or catch the Hop on Hop off bus, just up the road from the Cruise terminal
Easier and cheaper to get a cab

Your right in the heart of the harbour - beautiful send off with the bridge and the opera house
