We definitely liked the small size (ca. 1300 passengers) of the Rotterdam. Embarkation and disembarkation went smoothly. Lifeboat drill was somewhat disorganized. It felt as if many of the crew members were not very experienced.
Ship is getting older but is pretty well maintained. Common areas were spotless.
Lunch at the Lido was excellent and made pleasant by a very upbeat waitstaff.
Nice big overhang so we kept the shade almost all of the time.
Across the hall from crew entrance but were never bothered by noise.
Lido is one deck up, but again no noise to speak of.
