Nice ship although dated. Really enjoyed the itinerary although some ports were far from town and shuttle buses were expensive! Service was good all over the ship. BORING menu in the main dining room after the 1st few days. Very repetitive. Nothing special for formal nights. Would recommend happy hours and a dedicated water bottle filling station! TOO many emails prior to the cruise and TOO much paper during the cruise. Account information should be available on stateroom t.v.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
MAIN DINING: Minstrel - Reservations for “My Time” dining defeats the purpose.
Staff was very courteous. BORING menu after the 1st few days. Very repetitive. Nothing special for formal nights
CASUAL DINING: Windjammer - Nice selection, good service
Park Café in the Solarium was very nice!
NEED a dedicated water bottle filling station
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Dislike extra charges for activities, many of which were unrealistically priced (ship tour, beer/wine tasting, etc.)
Line dancing was good although nothing new
Although guest lecture material was good, the presenter was monotone and boring
Ran out of champagne at Captain’s welcome
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Singers/dancers were consistently WONDERFUL!!
Russian entertainers and Tango performers were AMAZING!
Bowjangles was weird
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Suzette, Siwon and Ayu were standouts in the Main Dining Room

Ship was dated but nice.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Small room, bathroom and balcony. Disgusting smell in room. Carpet cleaned on day 4
Didn't feel as if we saw much of Stockholm. Compared with other city tours, this one was expensive and disappointing. Bus didn’t even slow for pictures
Agreed, I really wish they would revamp My Time Dining to a first come first serve platform instead of the bastardized version of Traditional Dining which it currently reflects.
