This cruise was a charter, so many things may have been different. I have cruised over 10 times, but this was my first experience on Royal Caribbean. First of all the ship was nice and airy, a great greeting when we cam on board. Our drink packages were already on the card. (an improvement over Carnival, the same as NCL). We were not greeted with a bunch of "buy this" which was great. I like to go to lunch in the main dining room. This was not an option.
We had an ADA compliant oceanview room. (the chartering agent had not separated out ADA rooms so I had to look at deck plans to do this myself when we made our reservations). The door was an automatic door with a good amount of time for a wheel chair to enter the room. (It took us awhile to figure out it would close on its own). the room was spacious, the bathroom was also excellent. The keeping water in the shower was a problem. . .. not an unusual problem in an ADA room. Instead of no bathroom door sill, this sill was ramped. We found ourselves tripping on the ramp often. Perhaps on a longer cruise we would have gotten it through our skulls and been less clutch in this regard. The room did not have a posting of how to turn off an emergency call if accidentally hit, so on day four when i accidentally tripped the switch getting into the shower, I knew I would be visited by an employee soon. . . he arrived just as i was getting out of the shower. He then showed me how to disable the call.
Royal Caribbean was very stingy with their pool towels. You had to swipe each one out, and return them also with a swipe. Ironically these were the least desirable towels I had ever experienced on a ship. I can't imagine anyone wanting to steal one.
Large Ocean View ADA State Room. The room was lovely. There was plenty of storage space for two. The view from the large window was lovely. There was a ramp into the bathroom which was a challenge at times that we were walking about the room, but made entry into the bathroom much safer than a sill would have been. The door opened wide automatically when the key card was inserted. There was also an opening button in the cabin. There was a small refrigerator which we didn't use There was also a safe. We had to request ice, but once requested it was kept full.
