Review summary

I love cruising so I hate to give a bad review but this was the most terrible cruise. It was so packed and unorganized. Food lines were so long. Workers were rude. I’ll never do a 3 days again. This was just a last minute trip we decided to do.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Longest wait I’ve experienced getting on a cruise.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Hands down the worst cruise food I’ve had. Longest food lines. It was at least a 45 minute to hour wait for food. Completely ridiculous

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Didn’t really do many activities other than the gym. This ship was so crowded it was almost impossible to do anything. The gym is very nice.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

We only watched the violin show while we were waiting on the dining room to seat us. They did very well

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

Staff were not very friendly on this ship. The guy cleaning our room was great though. The room beside us were constantly smoking weed. Our room smelled like marijuana the entire time

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Weirdest ship layout. It’s been recently updated so it wasn’t dirty but the layout was odd and took some getting used too.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Small but to be expected for an interior cabin. Only complaint was the constant marijuana smell coming from the room beside us

Ship tip

Don’t do it.

Disembarkation

Disembarkation was the best part of this cruise. It went so fast and smooth. We couldn’t wait to get off this boat

Yes, three day cruises bring a certain demographic I don’t typically mesh with. I have done two of them as weekend getaways. We always otherwise go no less than 7 because of this.

Sorry you had a terrible experience. Three days for a cruise is just too short.

I stay away from short cruises 🛳. Because of the reasons you stated. I have never let the action of others make me not have a good time I do understand how you feel.

Appreciate your details. Sorry this cruise didn’t meet your expectations. Fortunately you know that this isn’t the norm. However, three day cruises seem to get poor reviews.
