So sorry for ur bad experience. I wouldn't expect the ship to look brand new after only 2 was dry dock. Hopefully you enjoyed the places you did go.

Ports can change at any time and ship was in dry dock only 2 weeks, can't expect it to look brand new. Upgrades are never promised, all they can do is try. No guarantees.
