Enjoyed the ship and the ports. Be warned when going through Bay of Biscay you can definitely feel the ship moving. Be prepared if you are prone to motion sickness

Lots of room. Lots of storage. Could not get the TV to swivel but not a big deal

Ship tip

If you want to go to the pub for music or schooner bar for trivia get there early not a lot of seating and it fills up quick
