Review summary

Food good. Staff extremely good. Entertainment so so so

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Very smooth although they were doing a complete sanitization due to GI sickness on prior cruise so we couldn’t board til 2:00. Not a big deal and happy ship underwent a complete scrubbing.

Onboard Activities

Pools were great. Hot tubs need to be hotter. People saving chairs for hours and not there. This was a pain

Entertainment

3 out of 5
At night there were several music trivia games. But they used same music for all games. Same people showed up every night and won all the games. Please download some new music!! Magicians were good. Shows were so so.

For someone with difficulty walking it would have been nice to have carts or wheelchairs on pier to help traverse the long piers
