Review summary
This boat is old, and even though it's been renovated, they can't possibly replace everything. Half of the elevators didn't work half the time, so we were pretty much forced to take the stairs the entire time. The cruise director wasn't great either. We only saw her twice the entire time. The food was pretty good, especially the burgers and the fine dining. This ship has very little for kids to do, so if they don't enjoy the kids club (which ours didn't), they're pretty much out of luck. We were never able to play putt-putt golf or ping pong because they were always taken and putt putt didn't have enough balls. They should have sign ups or something for ping pong so that everybody gets a chance to play. Our refrigerator didn't work for the first 2 days, and it took 5 calls to Guest Services for them to finally replace it. We had a good time, especially on the excursions, but we'll definitely choose a different ship next time.Embarkation
