Review summary

We enjoyed our first cruise, however we will look for adult only future cruises due to parents not mindful of young children running thru the stateroom halls. (Maybe put up signs as reminders) You should consider putting the casino on a floor that is enclosed away from others who cant be around smoke.

Ship Quality

Everything was clean however I would have preferred to have not had to walk thru the smoky casino to get from one end of the boat to the other(to get to shows)

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Much bigger & roomier than I expected-no complaints except hard to see out of window due to it being so dirty.
