Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Cabin was nice, clean, plenty of space my only problem is the bathroom smells like 600 year old seaweed

Ship tip

On sea days be ready in the Windjamer Cafe no tables to sit and eat. One of the problems passengers park themselves at tables to play cards or read. Tables don't turn over

Halifax, Nova Scotia Did not visit port

I would suggest using Canadian money sales people in shops and restaurants get an attitude when you use US cash. I don't think they appreciate our US business. Lots of fellow passengers also surprised with the negative anti America attitude. Maybe cruise ships should rethink this port.
