Review summary

Interior is old, dirty. Smell of sewage the last 3 days in halls. Food subpar. Don't waste your $ on the steakhouse. Buffet was gross. Minimal activities. Steward and wait staff were the only things positive on this ship. Never again!

I felt this way about the Freedom but definitely not this way about the Dream I loved it!

My wife and I really liked the dream when we cruised in August. I will admit it was our first cruise, but I still thought it was a nice ship.

I myself wasn’t totally impressed with the Dream. However, we are cruising on Glory next year so if it’s not any better, I’ll try other cruise lines.
