Review summary

Get rid to the smoking on the 5th floor. Decide if you want to really put that many people at a health risk with that smoking. UGH!!! I hated the way my clothes smelled!

I really do not like the 5th floor on the Magic and it can be easily fixed by banning smoking in the casino. The main walk way on that floor is through the casino. I saw little kids holding their noses to get through that area. The smoke also filtered to other areas on the ship. It was disgusting and harmful to peoples health. I will go on the Magic again until that is fixed.

Slow service. Room was sometimes not clean until after 2:00pm.
