Review summary

Had wonderful time with family and friends. Excursions we wonderful and will have great memories. Other the the bad experience with our wait staff in the main dining room I have no real complaints. I so think the decor of the ship is terrible, very dark and overall just weird.

My boyfriend and I went on this ship last year and while we enjoyed our cruise, we definitely felt the same about the decor.
