We didn't choose this cruise our friends did. As we entered the pier to embark, traffic was backed up. We were trying to get to the drop off area. An hour later ( distance 1/4 mile) we finally arrived.The area for commercial vehicles ( buses, shuttles,etc) is in the same area. Directions and people helping direct traffic were the worst I've ever seen. The Royal Caribbean people were arguing with each other. Need I say more? We did find out later that there was a problem with Port Authorities and people wouldn't get off the ship.
So we pull up to unload our luggage. I hand our paperwork to RC crew member, they put the wrong numbers on our luggage, luckily my husband caught the mistake. So it has to be done all over again and wrong tags removed. We ended up helping the guy do his job. I'd said by now we aren't impressed.
There are people everywhere somehow we found our way out of the masses to check in. Check in was smooth. We were given our room keys and boarding number and told where to go to wait to be called to board. We found our friends. Going on board was a long walk up ramps. Note: don't carry much luggage on. We carried just a pilot case.
The cabin didn't have much storage. I did like the closet with shelving. The cabinets by the sliding glass door, I have no idea what would fit in them. They were so shallow but tall. Needed better shelving in bathroom. It was there but needed the little bars across to keep products in place.
