Review summary

I absolutely loved my cruise. The itinerary was perfect, the staff very quick and always addressed me by name. My only complaint is the accessability o smoking areas. Often time i noticed that the acceptable areas changed daily and once was told that you could only smoke in the casino if i was actually playing.

I loved the comedy show and the whiskey and stogie tasting. I think the bingo games were a little short but Stephanie was great and kept every energized.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward was awesome (too bad i cant remember his name) but he was always nice. We often visited the poolside bar on lido deck and it was always quick service.

Ship Quality

Loved it but i do think the valor is showing a little age

Ship tip

We mainly had breakfast on Lido. We went to the seaday brunch but werent heavily impressed. I would like to suggest that they inform of the way the eggs are prepared on the menu or ask how you'd like them. I also think that there should be more sign &sail kiosks onboard.
