Review summary
The ship had everything we could have asked for, however we had a few unpleasant interactions with the staff. Overall the general staff were happy and eager to help, however when it came to managerial interactions (in which we had two) they were rude, disrespectful, and made the problem worse. On a vacation such as this, we had hoped to not have any negative experiences... or at least none that would go uncorrected. I have never complained or sought out managers on any other vacation I have been on and on the ship I did twice. We couldn't get a drink for two hours due to a "VIP event that was using all bar staff" (we were unaware that we weren't "VIP" enough to have a bartender at points throughout our cruise). Minus the managers making small problems big problems, the trip was definitely one to remember--from efforts on our own terms.
