We chose this cruise because it was a chartered progressive rock, "Cruise to the Edge" (CTTE) which we have attended on other cruise lines in the past. The CTTE portion was great. The ship services were disappointing compared to other less expensive cruise lines we have been on, I was certainly expecting better service than what we received from all that we had heard about RC.

Some examples: the first morning, we left our room at around 8:30 am, went to breakfast at the buffet, went to a concert, got back to the room about 12:40 and it had not been made up. Our next event was going to start at 2 so we decided to rest for an hour. The porter arrived about 10 minutes later and I said we would be out of the room again in an hour. She responded, she is supposed to get off at 1 but was already running late and going to have to work extra because she still had 3 rooms to make up. We ended up leaving the room a few minutes later so she could do her job.

The second night at dinner we were squished together at a table for 12-14 other people, asked to push our chairs in further than was comfortable and the waiter had to reach way across people in order to serve anything while 3/4 of the room was completely empty. My husband and I ended up getting up and leaving before we even ordered it was so uncomfortable. Read more
