We choose this ship as we were led to believe that it was going to be an unbelievable more exciting cruise. We were led down a path of a lack luster -- cattle packed cruise. The food while eatable lacked taste and was over cooked. The speciality restaurants were a joke -- Chops -- Steaks were over seasoned and overcooked. The Italian restaurant --- no chicken or veal dishes. Bar service was poor or better yet less than poor. We stood at one bar for 15 minutes to get a drink and then it was wrong. Could not understand half of the staff nor could they understand us. Simple things like I would like an cheese omelet and I got two fried eggs. Main dining room service was like a cattle drive --- pushing you into a smaller and smaller space between tables -- wait staff was catch us if you can. Assuming we go on another cruise --- it will be an a smaller vessel. I don't think that Royal Caribbean has got it together -- staffing wise and service wise with these larger ships.
