The smell of sewage the entire time was too much. Cruise director was good and very entertaining. Food was really crappy. Drinks were good when you could get them. Comedians were outstanding.
Embarkation
2 out of 5
They had nobody guiding passengers to muster station once on board. If someone was a new cruiser they would not have known that they needed to go there first. Fortunately I knew this had to be done.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
1 out of 5
Food was really not so great, drinks were very good but hard to get service
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Adult pool was a nice option
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Stage shows were absolutely awful, singers that they had were horrible. Comedians were excellent.
Children's Programs
1 out of 5
Kids seem to enjoy the kids areas but honestly need to offer them more to eat than pizza that they have to wait an hour and a half for in the evening. Slap some snacks on the buffet for them.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
Room steward did not leave fresh towels or beach towels, left empty dirty glasses in room, provided no cups in bathroom. Water was okay, but his assistant MaryJane was excellent. Some of the staff seemed to be a bit rude at times.
Ship Quality
1 out of 5
Ship smelled like sewage the entire cruise, layout was horrible. Very difficult to find your way around. Elevator floors sticky and dirty
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Cabin was a nice size, shower drain was extremely slow so always had water on the floor. It was clean when we arrived
MichalW.....I agree. 2 posts, one right after the other...same date, same ship. One was 5 stars. One was a lot less. Always wonder why such extreme opposite reviews.
A lot of people have been complaining about the food across all cruise lines, and I wonder if maybe this is lingering effect of having had covid. Of course I don't know if any of these people have had covid, but loss of taste is a known effect of covid. Maybe it doesn't come back fully?
Always curious how most people have such positive experiences while there are always a few who just thought their cruise was miserable. Curious, were your expectations extremely high and not met, are you the person who looks for things that aren’t to your liking rather than enjoying what is in front of you for what it is? Not meant to be an attack post, but I’ve wanted to ask for a long time, and hoping you will share your thoughts.
