Review summary

My husband has a back issue and was unable to find a comfortable chair in any of the lounge areas. The dinner menu was a disappointment as it was difficult on 2 evenings to select a menu item that was appealing. The ship was very clean but overrun with about 300 kids who required a crash lesson in manners as well as some of the parents. The desserts were quite good. Our room steward was very unfriendly and not very helpful with the smallest of request such as an additional wash cloth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Very disappointing as we had been on the Glory a year and half ago and thought the food choices to be good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The 2 comedians were as funny as can be.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Cabin steward was quite unfriendly with an attitude to boot. He could not even furnish an additional wash cloth when requested. The dinign room stewards were very good, very friendly. Please-do not have the dining people do the ridiculous dances as it is so demeaning for them.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Very uncomfortable lounge chairs in the interior of the ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Pros: The stop in Cozumel

Cons: The uncomfortable lounge chairs in the common areas and lackluster menu.
