We enjoyed our trip but would have been better if we'd known not to book a later dinner on night one so my son could have met some kids at the meet/greet. The ship has no real library. It's wide open to the rest of the ship which means piped in music and kids running through it.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
aside from main dining room staff guilting us for going to specialty restaurants on nights 1,3 & 4 - their attention was terrific. Food was okay .. some preparations a little odd so read carefully because they were never what I expected. Specialty -- chops, jaime's and wonderland were all good.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
lines for most of the seaplex activities .. never go the ifly res to work .. we did the north star which was fun. Wish we knew when the kid meet and greet was because we had a dinner reservation and my son had to miss it .. he was not happy and was not able to make friends despite the ship being filled with kids ... Made it tough for me (mom) traveling alone to meet anyone either.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Everyone is very talented but the storylines on all shows is really insane.
Children's Programs
2 out of 5
My son is 17 and didn't attend most activities because they were mixed 12-17; find me a17 year old who wants to hang with 12 year olds.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Only one issue which was a waiter in chops who couldn't answer a pretty simple question about wine and said no one else would know the answer .. without asking if anyone knew the answer.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
generally neat .. i kept it very well picked up but the toilet was not clean for some reason .. not sure why they don't scrub it
we bought an excursion from the ship but because of a delay in arrival time -- it wasn't clear what time the tour departure was .. it left before we finished with immigration .. we easily obtained a refund along with others who had the same issue but it's been almost 2 weeks and I still don't' know exactly why the excursion left w/o out -- Warning to those wishing to bring baked goods on board -- don't. There were many boxes of pastry in the garbage at the port when we returned to the ship.
