Review summary
The cruise was great, we had perfect weather out of Houston and the weather was great the entire cruise. The cabin steward was great, easy to get service from and remembered all our quirks. The ship is definitely due for the upcoming upgrades. Some areas weren't super clean and there was clear wear and tear in some of the public areas. The balconies were a good size compared to other ships. However the glass was never cleaned on the bannisters. Their idea of cleaning the glass was throwing a bucket of water at it and walking away. That is the first time I've seen a ship with glass so dirty on the balconies. Usually I see them cleaning the glass in Mahogany Bay but it didn't happen on our cruise. Other than that and the few public areas that need upgrades, the ship is fantastic. The public areas are great and definitely take a trip on the Lido deck all the way to the front past the balcony staterooms. The view once you get outside is great, albeit very windy when you're sailing.
