This was our 11th cruise, first one on RCCL. We are retired seniors.
We arranged our own travel to the port of embarkation, Vancouver. Vancouver is a difficult city to maneuver on your own. Maybe better to book your arrival transportation with the cruise. Check in was a breeze, with very friendly service.
The stateroom was comfortable and roomy. We had a nice view from the window. It was not obstructed. The amenities in the bathroom were non-existent, only a bar of soap and some sort of all purpose gel in the shower. Now that the airlines are being so restrictive on baggage weight, I left all my shampoos and lotions at home and was disappointed that RCCL didn't offer any. No robes either. I was told that RCCL is a "cut above" other cruise lines, but didn't find it to be.
Nice room. Not too small. No overhead bunks to smack your head on. Comfy bed. Unobstructed view from window. Closet and drawer space adequate for 7 day cruise. Might be small for a longer cruise. Bathroom was disappointing. No toiletries. Only a bar of soap and all purpose gel dispenser in shower. No lotion, facial soap, shower cap, shoe polishing cloth, etc. I left my stuff home because I knew? they would supply it. I've had better amenities at a Motel 6. I know all cruise lines are looking for ways to cut back, but this really came across as cheap. I couldn't even get what I needed by asking the cabin steward. They were simply not available.
