Ship Quality

4 out of 5

A little frustrating at times getting off at an elevator and not having a way to walk around to get where you want to go on the same floor b/c there's no option except to go into the restaurant. (Having to go up one floor, then walk around and go back down)

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

It was very nice, good size and very clean. Lighting was excellent
