We chose Royal for a different experience we were not disappointed. Cabin was much larger than expected for inside cabin, very pleased. It was very spacious, even had a couch and a frig. You have to have a balcony on some ships to get that.
The food was excellent. The service was great. The waiters were very attentive, and made sure you had what you wanted. The shops were nice, a little disappointed that they only had a one day $10.00 sale. However I was able to get two nice watches. The comedy show was ok, not really that funny. The farewell show was great. Loved the part where staff members from each department came on stage to say farewell. The salute to 70 night was so much fun. The photographers, were a bit abrupt, they rushed you through the process, and quality of pictures was not that good. All in all a great cruise.
