Review summary

This was meant to be just a relaxing cruise. My son lives in California so I took the opportunity to take this cruise while visiting him. Smoking was bad in the casino. Not my favorite cruise but enjoyed it and glad I got the opportunity!

Service and Staff

My room steward Christine was wonderful! Service was always good.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

I feel the cruise lines are still short handed with staff. They work hard but can only keep up with so much. Overall ship was clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

My first inside cabin and I really liked it. A few plumbing problems. First day shower overflowed but was fixed right away. Sink drain also had some issues. Deck 11 is a smoking deck which I was unaware of. Just good info to know when booking.
