This was my 5th cruise and is my first written review. Here are my observations of Adventurer of the Seas sailing out of San Juan, Puerto Rico on November 26, 2006

the down side - The cabin air conditioner worked on minimal the entire time. Bathroom sink clogged frequently and intermittently had brown running water. After wiping down my room with clorox wipes, I found the door to the refrigerator to be filthy. I don't think it was ever wiped down from day of installation. The refrigerator was not cold enough to keep milk from going bad. The mattress was a thin cot with no box spring (which I have had on other ships). Re: passengers... majority were extremely rude and lacking in manners. Examples of rudeness displayed were: not allowing wheel chair passengers off elevator before they entered, allowing their children to run rampid on board, teenagers shredding toilet paper and watching it float down from upper deck, walking in front of professional photographer while taking posed pictures, entire family members sitting on floor in photo gallery sprawling their pictures on the floor to view while e others were forced to walk around them in small area, bumping into others without giving apology, using their cell phone to talk during nightly theatre show. One lady even raised her leg on top of a banister on promenade deck so she could pick her toe nails!! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't witnessed it myself. I could go on about this bunch of classless people, but I won't.

the upside- Although we didn't have enough people to have an official Meet & Mingle, I did meet up with two other couples who were extremely nice and made our socializing allot of fun. At our dinner time, we had a table for six. One couple never showed, but the couple who did, made our dinner time very enjoyable. Regarding our excursions; Our luncheon on Orient Beach in St. Maarten was a success and our snorkel experience at St. John was the best snorkel experience and I hope to go back there in the future. Re the staff: Very professional, polite and always willing to please no matter what the circumstance. We did have one major occurrence where our room attendant forgot to close our cabin door after cleaning our room and we discovered it had been left wide open for at least an hour while we were having dinner. The incident was reported and the attendant apologized. Also, I want to mention it was a pleasure to see hand sanitation stations before entering dinning areas on the ship. There was also one for passengers returning to the ship. Read more
