Review summary

Food options were great - loved that Mongolian and Indian food were choices on top of the usual pizza and burgers.  At any time of day you could find variety and unique choices that were good.  Ship is laid out well and clean.  Did not care for so many smoking areas - surprised how smelly casino was and affected the surrounding area.  No issues with tender timing or debarkation.  Felt crew keep the flow moving well.  Room staff was very kind - main table wait staff was worst I ever had.  No attempt to make conversation and main course arrived over an hour past the time we sat down three different meals.  Loved the back pool but wished for better music selection while there.  Drinks were delish and no skimping on alcohol content.

Entertainment

Loved the band playing mid ship. Piano bar singer is pretty talented however a creepy guy. Cruise director Jace dumped my entire drink in my lap there. Tried comedy club once and left early. Too hard to watch guy make fun of nice family and think it was funny.
