Review summary

Scrambled eggs at both the Imagination restaurant and at the Lido benefit were very runny and unappetizing. When I ordered steak and eggs besides the runny scrambled eggs the steak was well done when I ordered medium. For that meal, runny eggs and overcooked steak was a real disappointment. I ended up using the Lido buffet for the remainder of the cruise. Also the lack of lobster for at least one evening meal was very disappointing; c,mon a cruise without lobster? Also our cabin's TV position made it risky to get into bed on my side. Plus the picture was blurry and the sound rattled. The Elation needs to be remodeled or retired.

PS The cabin service was excellent as always.
