Review summary
Everyone said ship is a bit worn, but stateroom was well kept and Balcony cabin roomy and quiet. General condition of ship good. Decoration was dated. Liked the number of pools. (2 good size, 1 smaller adult only. 1 small pool in spa area required a use fee and many Jacuzzis). Dining not so good. Breakfast and lunch at buffet very crowded and hard to find seating for a couple. The 2 Anytime dining options were extremely noisy. It was hard to carry on a conversation. Too much noise from too many serving stations and overall poor acoustics . The food was excellent, but the noise ruined the whole experience! Went to Crown Grill a perk from travel agent. Food was similar to other dining venues and my steak was not cooked as I requested. Not worth the $60.00 per couple charge, however definitely quieter. Not ready to cruise again soon. Cruise industry must offer Internet service no charge. With all todays technology there is no reason to charge( hotels don't). It's the 21st century!
