Elevators are horrible even if you know how to use them.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
Smart elevators may be smart but most people using them are not and can not follow instructions. VERY long wait times in prime times. I am so glad they did not put these on the Excel class ships. They know they are an issue.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Loved the size after being on the Mardi Gras twice in the smaller balcony cabins. Plenty of room.

Ship tip

If you want to go to Ji Ji's go 20-30 min. early as it fills very fast.
