Ship Quality

5 out of 5

This ship is so huge we never got around to seeing everything on this cruise but I really enjoyed it it’s one of the biggest ships I have ever been on there is so much to do the layout is also good,it just takes time to find everything because the ship is so big and that’s what I loved about it because there were Hidden places to go.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was nice, but there was a lot of noise at night we were toward the end of this ship you could hear them working on the ship at night that was banging loud noises we love the cleaning of the room The room was always clean we had plenty of towels we were very well taken care of it was high where we were located on the 14th floor and the end of the ship was very noisy we enjoyed our stay very much

Ship tip

Be prepared to do a lot of walking because this ship is huge, but very well-maintained.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5

Disembarkation was the worst people was so mixed up they did not follow instructions the ship crew gave good instructions but some people fail to follow the instruction which made it hard for the others to do, we made it out but not without a headache, but all in all it was the best cruise ever .
