Over all a very basic cruise experience and no wow factors here. Food was mediocre most nights. You have your regular good items and then a ton of overcooked and boiled food. The show cast -some great singers but they looked painfully unrehearsed. The entertainment staff was great and very fun to interact with. My cabin steward was 5 star amazing (JOY). She was on point every single day and never missed a beat. Buffet situation is ridiculous- the smallest and repetitive station ever. Also the staff there does not care at all. I observed someone one putting bread away by slammimg the baskets on top of each other. Pizza -I have never encountered a more rude and grumpy staff member like this one- Most of the pizza is crust and he barely puts anything on it. I asked if he could make one pie with sauce and he gave me attitude and pointed at the menu of 3 styles of pizza. Warning- there is no hot food or any food available on the ship after 11:30. Unless you want pizza crust. Overall it felt like the energy of the staff felt so low. I guess since the boat will be doing a different cruise soon people have just given up here. I had a great time because we make the best of everything but I would not recommend this to anyone cruising for the first time as they would be dissatisfied. I love cruising with MSC but I must say this was the worst cruise I have ever been on.

I wish i would have known

The ship is beautiful and well kept meaning clean. as far as my stateroom not so much. it was fine but if you start to look at it too much you would have noticed the dust and some little lines of mold in the shower. so not a huge deal but it was there. i wish i would have known that this ship had so many older people going. again not a problem but there were a total of about 30 guests that were under 40's. we counted we also got together with the 30 people lol. which meant that most if not all of the activities  were geared that way. especially the music. the food was ok but there was never anything new the buffet for breakfast and lunch are the exact same all 10 days for except 1 dessert here and there. we tried to eat in tje ports to get some variety in there. the evening shows wrre awesome excpet for the comedian Tim something. He had no comedy on his own. His only  jokes were to  make fun of the  audience which is nice in moderation not when its your whole show. the staff was always great polite andwere actually having fun too.
