constable145 Posted September 1, 2017 Author #51 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I board on Saturday and am thoroughly enjoying reading your experience. Can't wait!Have you taken note of the theme parties? Reading other reviews I've read about the 90's party, an all white clothes party(?), a 50's party? Any more themes? I enjoy dressing the part and participating in the action. I've seen the 90s party and the 50s and 60s party. I don't recall seeing the all white party.

molsonschooner Posted September 1, 2017 #52 Share Posted September 1, 2017 We are on this cruise as well. We have a balcony cabin on deck 8. I agree with the constable in most areas. Boarding was so fast, on the ship before some star class people. The server in the dinning room has been great. In fact, the crew in general have been quite friendly and have done a good job Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big al Posted September 1, 2017 #53 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I have read several posts about the ship temperature being too hot & cabins not cooling down enough...this is a pet peeve for me, as I like my cabin COLD :halo: and hate when a ship is warm in various places..are you finding the ship temp ok? Anybody else that has been on the HOS also experience this? Big Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

constable145 Posted September 1, 2017 Author #56 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Ugh. Day 7. I dislike this feeling. Last night I went to Wonderland. I am admittedly a picky eater.. The appetizers didn't do much for me but the mains and the dessert more than made up for it. Today I stopped by the Captain's Corner. Captain Gus likes doing it inside so we were at Dazzles. Overall, some interesting questions... And some I've heard before. I did not know that RCI sells the recycling scrap and puts the proceeds of that back into the crew welfare fund. I'm currently waiting for Johnny Rockets. This is one area I wish Royal would revisit. Our cabin stewards, dining room server and genie continue to amaze me. They are kicking me off of here in about 20 hours. Ugh. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy C Posted September 3, 2017 #71 Share Posted September 3, 2017 We were on the same cruise. We are all depressed that we are still not on the ship. We were in a Grand Suite Balcony 7254. I will post a review later. I agree with most things the OP has stated although we did not eat in the MDR however our family did and they were generally pleased. We enjoyed the Coastal Kitchen experience. Let me know if you have any questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
