Review summary

Worst part- the constant overwhelming smoke smell from all the smokers in the casino - absolutely disgusting. Other than that, decent cruise

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Really well organized and all indoors waiting

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Main dining was excellent- 5 stars. Buffets were two stars- way, way, way too crowded. Very little navigation space, and you have to fight for a table.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Sky bike and ropes course are fun. Water slides are a bit boring after three times, but that is the case with all I suppose

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Really good shows. Deal or No deal was really fun, as bingo gets old

Children's Programs

4 out of 5

Trampoline park is fun, but costs extra

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Solid, not exceptional

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Very clean. The design of having a smallish theatre, smallish shops area, and incredibly small buffet seating area.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Good - clean room
