Review summary

Although this was on an older ship and we were notified that the engines were being worked on for the speed, we were pleasantly surprised that this was a very smooth cruise. No weather or mechanical issues were noticed. It was clean and staff were pleasant and helpful. We are seasoned cruisers and even though it was Spring break, there was plenty of open deck to sun in. The food was good as well.

We love booking porthole rooms. We are rarely in our room so having just a place to rest as well as natural light is great. Our room steward Jeffrey was awesome.
