Creator's Key Takeaways

We just wrapped up seven nights in a brand new type of Royal Caribbean suite. And honestly, it was a massive letdown.

I would not book it. We're showing you everything.

The new suite for me, massive fail.

It's dirty, old and the suite experience did not live up to expectations.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a balcony cabin instead of a suite on this ship.
Book the ultimate dining package for better value.
Bring cleaning wipes for the cabin.
Bring long USB cords and adapters due to limited power outlets.
Book shows on the cruise planner before getting on the ship.
