Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

Nice size with a good bed and sitting area. But do not book a cabin on the top deck if it’s going to be windy the mast on the top of the ship make a huge noise and you will not sleep and when yo ask a member of the staff what’s wrong the just laugh and say it’s just the wind.

Ship tip

Never book book a cabin on G deck

Was on the same cruise as yours. I had a wonderful time with no dining room issue. Food selection and service were great. Singing shows were so funny and entertaining. Our room was quiet and peaceful deck 7 back no problem getting on or off the ship.

This is an older ship on a short itinerary aimed at first time and budget conscious cruisers. A longer itinerary on a newer ship will usually be a better experience. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for.
