Review summary

This ship is in very good condition for an older type of cruise ship. The ships design causes one to have to go up to the 5th floor to get from the front to the back of the ship. the 3rd & 4th floors do not permit one to get from the front to the back. Otherwise, this ship was lots of fun & laughs. the shows are first rate & the crew is ALWAYS upbeat with lots to do every minute of your cruise nonstop.. Lots of energy from the staff & crew. Everyone was very pleasant. The casino was generous in it's slot play payouts. This permitted one to play, WIN, as well as loose. This is how a casino on Board ship should be operated. Not like the newer type cruise ships, that structure their casino play to be like throwing money overboard, never winning means no fun play in the casino. We all know the casino ( house) ALWAYS wins. BUT. this casino permits one to get some play for their money. AND if you play wisely, you might even beat the casino for some cruise fare on your next cruise like I did.

Warning.!! lots of children running all over the ship, even the casino. Children unsupervised in the pools & hot tubs at all hours with out supervision. If you do not like, or want children on your cruise. Do NOT go on this ship for this Canadian Itinerary.
