Review summary

The cruise was fine. It was our first as a family and I would not recommend this for anyone with kids as there's not much excitement onboard when not at port.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Very clean, no issue there. Older ship that rocked in the waves and didnt have much entertainment . BUT, there was always somewhere to go if you wanted to get away from the crowd

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Small, as expected. Super shower pressure, temp, etc
