All in all a Great cruise and very relaxing! Just wish there wasn't so many smoking areas (didn't bother me as much on other cruises). Debarkation needs lots of work. We don't need assistance but standing up for over an hour is too much.
Embarkation

We didn't purchase FTTF but really didnt wait more than 15 minutes.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining

MDR was great as always, we ventured out and ate somethings we normally wouldn't order here at home like Es Car Go and Calimari oh and Braised Rabbit. Guys Burgers was awesome (hubby ate that almost everyday for lunch), me on the other hand loved the Taco Bar (can't remember name at the moment). Also the coffee bar was amazing!

Our head waitress was Leslie from the Philippines. She was amazing at dinner and breakfast when we saw her.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Hubby played putt putt and said it was ok. They were excited to play corn hole but was really dissappointed in how the game was played and run on the ship. They don't use traditional rules. My son said he wouldn't play anymore on cruises. Loved the peacefulness of the Serenity deck versus the pool side Lido deck.
Entertainment

You could get off the elevator or comind down the stairs anywhere close to the casino and you can smell the cigarette smoke. I'm allergic and would have loved to hit the coffee bar more but it was too close to the casino.
Children's Programs

The Diva show and 80's Epic Rock was amazing! Just wished both were alittle longer wasn't more than 45 mins to an hour tops. Would love to see an hour and a half great show. BINGO with BK was awesome. He made it super fun! The crew was VERY talented!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Waiterd was great, friendly and efficient. Room steward was great (Henry from Empress deck). We asked for things to be fixed (shower & phone) which was promptly fixed at our request!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Ship layout was standard but just wished some places I wanted to frequent wasn't so close to the casino and the cigarette smoke.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Size was bigger than expected. With all the floor room (even with the cot) could use a chair for sitting.
Debarkation could use some help. Things have changed in the last 4 years since we cruised and really needs more updating. Some of our crew having some medical isseues can't stand for long periods of time and we stood about an hour in line to get off the ship.
