Overall the cruise was fun. Lots have changed since COVID. One surprising change is that smoking is allowed on the floor of the casino. I did not enjoy the smoky environment, it was a turn off. Not sure why that was changed.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
These were okay. Lots have changed regarding the variety of food. Too many homestyle cooking types of food, i.e. mash potatoes, pasta, etc. I recall on previous cruises more seafood items, salmon, shrimp, etc. were on the buffet. Also, some of the food items were tasteless.
As for the main dining room, I found the food to be the same. The quality and portion sizes has changed. Also, I found that some of the Lido deck buffet food was also served in the main dining rooms. Kinda disappointed about that. I did enjoy the lobster rolls at the seafood shack. Those were good!

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The room was very comfortable and our room stewards, Made/Shi(sp) was great. The rooms were cleaned regularly and thoroughly. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows were awesome. The only complaint that I have is that many children were on my floor and I could hear them sometimes running and slamming the balcony doors.
