Review summary

It was terrible!They had the usual pools, putt putt gold, basketball, ping pong, and bean bag toss. They did have the roller-coaster which was great, but you had to pay $15 to go around twice! It is not included in the price of the cruise. To put the cheery on the cake. They woke us up at 4am on disembarkation morning hammering on the balcony banister! They were fixing stuff all throughout the so-called "new" ship!

Embarkation

It was long and tedious. It reminded me of the old days where it took an act of congress to board a ship

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The food was a joke! I have been on numerous cruises and I could not believe the food selection in the Lido deck! The food selection was located in the aisle, not a cafeteria and you got whatever 3 dishes they served you that day. Two or 3 protein selections and some side. I kid you not!

I've never been on a ship where half the staff didn't smile and say hello. It was so weird
