Review summary

with the exception that I could not have a good night sleep with the amount of mechanical noise I could hear in my room day and night. I was staying at E165 and it woke me up all night! In addition to that I could not enjoy to hot tubs or the pools. I think the ship did not have enough entertainment for the amount of people on board.

Embarkation

Not as before, it was a huge mess, especially when they were trying to get everyone on the lido deck to show the safety instructions. I could honestly say that if something would have happened everyone would have been on their own.

I could not have a good night sleep with the amount of mechanical noise I could hear in my room day and night. I was staying at E165 and it woke me up all night! In addition to that I could not enjoy to hot tubs, pools or the serenity lounge they were all crowded. it seemed like the pool and hot tubs were not enough for the amount of people on board.

Entertainment

Adam Gilbert and his assistant Nathalie and the DJ RAndy were unforgettable. Never experienced such an amazing crew. Im still laughing at Adam's uniqueness and I'm not even on board.

It was unfortunate, how bad it was because the mattress and pillows felt amazing but I was constantly waking up with the mechanical noise in my room, it was day and night. I mentioned it to the guy who cleans but nothing ever happened.
