Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The food was overall very cheep quality… the same buffet offerings every day… the food didn’t look or smell appealing and there was no variety of fruits and vegetables.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The rooms need to be cleaned better… smell of urine is very strong in the showers.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

The cleanliness needs some work. Size is ok. It would be nice to have a small coffee maker in the room like all hotels do for comfort of their clients.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

3 out of 5

Nothing special. We didn’t do anything there other then spending almost three hours in line getting on the ship.

I sailed the Firenze and it was great. The buffet was an 8 out of 10. The watermelon,cantaloupe,strawberries,kiwi,bananas,blueberries, oranges and grapes were not enough,I don't agree,what more would you like? I went to I'll Viaggio great, MDR great,guys great,bonsai sushi great, there's more than just the buffet. Shows, went to multiple shows, did trivia, did bingo, made a mask for the captains toast. I'm going again in December

We sailed on the Firenze in October and did not experience any negative issues other than slow embarkation. The food was good, even in the buffet. The cabin was spotless.
