Review summary

We really enjoyed the itinerary on this cruise. Portland and Bar Harbor were fantastic. I was a little concerned about the ship because I had seen other people mention the ship was looking tired but I really don't know what they were talking about because I thought it was in great condition and was one of my favorite ships so far. My only complaint on the ship was about onboard entertainment. I found most of the shows to be disappointing and they seemed to be geared towards an older audience. Otherwise we had a great time on this cruise.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The food onboard was good but I felt like dining in the dining room took forever and I wasn't real impressed with the meal options in the dining room.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

For an interior cabin this seemed pretty spacious. We had a good location on the ship close to the central elevators but not in an area that got too noisy.
