Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food was plentiful and most of it was delicious. Lido buffet was terrible for breakfast, ok for lunch. Super crowded with long lines. Dining room was wonderful. Occasionally the food was overcooked but that happens in any restaurant. Great staff wherever you went.
Onboard Activities

Spent most time onboard at aft pool. It was ADULTS ONLY !!! They were kicking kids out the first day and the issue never arose again. Wonderfull !
Entertainment
5 out of 5
I'm not into shows but wife said they were good. Comedian Billy dee washington was hilarious whether you saw the PG show or the R rated show. The ship rock band with Fiona at the helm was awesome!

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Ship is beautiful inside and clean. Yes, there was smells of sewage and mildew in certain areas including the atrium area which was disturbing. The exterior of the ship was very rusty and dirty. We saw no exterior painting or cleaning of hull while onboard. Ship is old and looked terrible when docked near other ships.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Clean, orderly. Aft extended balcony is allways a treat!
Ship tip
Beautiful older ship. Easy to navigate. Don't go if crowds aren't your thing. Sorry that's 3.
TERRIBLE. They told all passengers to go all the way forward then down to floor 3. They called numbers 1 thru 5. Then 5 through 12, 10 minutes later. So everyone ended up jammed in elevators, halls, and stairwells in the forward area of ship. If there was an emergency we were all screwed. After realizing their mistakes they told everyone to stop coming down but it was too late. Very dangerous. Once you were off the ship the portside process was easy with a passport. If you didn't have a passport, the process took another hour? I don't know. We passed those people up. Ship staff must do better. I wonder if it is allways like that. LMK in comments.
Thank you for sharing your cruising experience. Great review! Yep, debarkation does need to be improved, have definitely experienced multiple times what you have described.
