The space on this ship has been utilized fully, both in the public areas and in the staterooms. Plenty of space to put everything away and never problem finding seating around whatever venue. The entertainment was wonderful-great orchestras and the service impeccable. I don't know however, how you could possibly make coffee as bad as we had every morning. My husband drinks decaf and poured in 2/3 hot water to 1/3 coffee to make it palatable. The regular wasn't quite that bad but almost and I like strong coffee. This cruise attracted a much older passenger, many in wheel chairs. We are in our early 60s and I felt like a coed. It wasn't a problem but young families might not enjoy it so much.

Old ship, still beautiful, laid out poorly. Hard to find your way around. Public restrooms virtually hidden. Buffet too small to serve number of people on board. Very congested and unpleasant. Wait staff doesn't even fill your coffee cup. They just clean tables, trying to give guests a place to sit down with their trays as they wander around looking. Food in dining room is nothing special and the wait between courses is absurd. Music in the bars and lounges wwas wonderful. We heard some very talented musicians and singers and enjoyed it very much. Entertainment on stage didn't sound like anything we'd be interested in but others seemed to enjoy it. Public ladies rooms were in constant need of attention. I had to tell a waiter more than once that there was no paper in them. This is very unusual. If I had never cruised before I may have thought this was a great cruise, but I have and it wasn't.
