Review summary

The ship was in very good shape, the staterooms were surprisingly roomy, and the decor was very interesting, which we could best call 'interestingly gaudy'. The sail was amazingly smooth. The staterooms were incredibly soundproofed (we were near one of the theater areas, and couldnt hear a thing, or people in the hallways, but it also meant we couldnt even tell if there was a PA announcement either). Beds comfortable, Nice roomy closets and dressers, nicely appointed rooms. Our room steward and staff were friendly and excellent. Itinerary was good, The shows were good. Nice New Year's Eve party. Food was very good generally. The best Caesar Salad we have had, available 24/7. Wait staff in main dining room was good but not great. Despite this being a full ship, we never felt crowded. Very few lines. Generally an enjoyable and fun cruise.
