Don't go on the 9 night cruise if you are in your 20's

I chose this cruise because it was touted as being exciting for young adults. Unfortunately, this is not the case. This cruise is great for young families and old people. If you are in your late teens or in your 20's, you will be bored stiff at night. I took my 2 sons, who are young adults. Every night, they went out hoping to find some cool clubs onboard the ship, but instead, we ran into nothing but 1970's clubs filled with people in their 50's and 60's, or piano bars filled with people in their 50's or 60's, or art auctions filled with people in their 50's or 60's. We saw a lot of other bored young adults walking around looking lost as well.

There must have been at least 6 clubs on board this ship. Couldn't Royal Caribbean dedicate just one club to people in their 20's and play Rap or whatever music is on the pop charts? I couldn't believe how insensitive this cruise line was to young adults.

It truly felt like the only thing Royal Caribbean cared about was making money off its passengers and keeping us "in line".

Cabin E1

The cabin was very nice except there were only 3 hangars in the closets (we had two adjoining cabins and both were like this), so bring your own hangars. Our housekeeper came in twice a day. We were very impressed with her and tipped her accordingly.
