Review summary

Our plan was to enjoy the scenery from our balcony, whether in port or cruising. My husband had had a fall earlier and was confined to a wheelchair so we did no excursions, but I pushed him a lot of miles on board in the wheelchair. We relaxed in our cabin and as he is almost completely blind as well as deaf, I read aloud to him both from the balcony when in port and from the bed when dark. Relax we did, going out for our late dinners.

Service and Staff

Room steward service was spotty. Had to ask more than once for some things. cabin cleaning was at a minimum

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Common areas were fine, though crowded. As far as our stateroom went, the odor of urine was overpowering in the bathroom. I know he cleaned but it must have been something in the ship's system OR he wasn't deep cleaning to get the urine odor out
