Disappointed with RCI. Probably won't ride them again.

Sail Date: Feb 2014

We have been on about 10 cruises--Princess, Royal Caribbean and NCL--and found this one our least favorite. Probably will not take another RCI again.

Upon arrival, an unpleasant sewer gas smell filled the hallway leading toward our cabin and lingered in our cabin's bathroom for the first 3-4 days.

Machines in exercise room were good and exercise room was clean and tidy but only way to get drinking water was from an old fashioned water fountain. How unsanitary--no plastic cups, no ice water and no cold water bottles being offered for sale were available. What a glaring lack of understanding what the exercising guests need.

Cabin Review

Cabin and bed were comfortable and well appointed. Cabin steward, Ed Quinn, was outstanding.Missed having ice filled bucket in room without having to request it.
