Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Dining room food was okay but nothing spectacular. I hate to say it but numerous people said the best food was Guys Burger Joint. Those hamburgers were delicious. The desserts on lido deck were beautiful but seemed to be dry & not that tasty. Desserts were better in the dining room.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

We spent most evenings in the Red Frog Pub & the group playing there was the Hot Shots. It was different eras of music & the female singer Pheona from the Philippines was fantastic. Her voice was great & she interacted with the crowd. Made for an enjoyable experience. The Legend has a dance club that is a waste of space. It is pretty & has a lighted dance floor but a dj that plays the music way too loud & horrible music choices. You can’t dance to it other than stand up & bob up & down. Total waste of an opportunity to dance. Every time we went in there people didn’t stay. There may have been 5 people in there at the most. The name of the dance club is Medusa’s Lair. If you want to dance don’t go there.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

This ship is an older one. The cabin furnishings & bathroom really need updating. The carpet is nice & appears clean but the couch was soiled & room furniture is really beaten up. The sink in the bathroom was cracked & discolored & the toilet was cracked also.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Cabin is just average. There is a balcony but it is a smaller balcony. The view is unobstructed so that was nice. Room really needs updating. Standard amount of storage. Does have a fridge but you will need a power strip cause there is only 1 outlet. Very small hairdryer is provided. Some rooms have usb charging ports on the lamp bases but this room does not. Bed is comfortable.

Ship tip

Be aware that if you buy the bubbles (soda) package you have to go to one of the bars to get your drinks. They don’t bring it to you. Also should you purchase an alcoholic drink, you don’t taste the alcohol.
