This was my wife and myself 2nd cruise with RC and reading previous reviews from other passengers on this ship, I would venture to say that most of those NEGATIVE comments were from snobs..Sorry if I offend you. That ship is like a fine wine, gets better with age. If you look at her schedule, she is at sea 7 days a week. So what if she had some rust, so what if she looks aged..Look past the cosmetics and look at the heart and soul of the ship. The captain and the crew...Who in case you did not realize are gone from their families up to 7 months a year and from the time we woke up until the time we went to bed. The crew had a smile on their faces. You displayed great with courtesy and respect everywhere you went around the ship.
Embarkation went extremely smooth from the time you entered the gangway till you arrived at your room...People complained that the room is to small...well, how much time do you actually spend in your room...Maybe you should have gotten a bigger room to begin with.
The wait staff in the dining room again, have to deal with 2700 passengers everyday and provide you with, again...A smile on their face, yeah, sometimes the food wasn't prepared "EXACTLY" the way you wanted it but put yourself in their shoes and deal with bitchy passengers all day. I think they all did a great Job.
It's a ship...It has a comfortable bed, a toilet, a HOT shower and a closet.. What more do you need. You are rarely in there.
it was a Sunday so a lot of shops are closed. met by a lot of vendors selling their items.
its a large city with a lot of traffic. Not much more to say
