Easy cruising from from Galveston. Embarkation was quick. and we were on board and Our cabin was ready on time at 1 pm. Our luggage arrived midafternoon.
The ship is very nice and attractively decorated. Although it was a pretty full sailing, there were few times it felt crowded and overall it is very quiet.
Our cabin was the very last balcony on the starboard side which provided an extra measure of privacy.
Cabin was spacious with adequate storage. It was in pretty good shape, but the cabins may all be showing their age a bit at this point. We had a slight problem with the deodorizer used between sailings, but it eventually aired out. The bed was comfortable but someone tall might find the curve on one side challenging. Our cabin was the very last balcony on the starboard side. The cabin aft is an oceanview.
Our cabin was the very last balcony on the starboard side which provided an extra measure of privacy. Only occasionally were the two cabins forward of ours (who were traveling together) out on their balconies.
We live 90 miles from Galveston and cruising from there is easy and convenient. This was our first time to take Royal Caribbean from there. Because it was Super Bowl Sunday, we elected to arrive before lunchtime. Embarkation was quick.
