Review summary

The room was fine. The bathroom was on the small side and rather utilitarian in decor. We ate in the dining room for breakfast and dinner each day and found the service, menu and food to be great. The buffet style lunch was varied but lines could get long. We enjoyed the comedy shows. The dance/singing shows were ok. The cruise director, Jase, needs to slow down. We never understood his announcements.

Initially the cabin was not clean but soon that was rectified. From then on, the cabin was clean and in good working order. Rather than asking each day for wine glasses and fresh ice in the bucket, it would be nice if the steward took the initiative and did so each day consistently without being asked.
