Review summary

This cruise was, perhaps the worst experience I have ever had traveling in my entire life. The cruise ship was dirty. It was very and old the carpet was disgusting. The programs that they had for children was nonexistent. The food was the same every single day. And last, but not least, I felt that I was in a motel, surrounded by people who had no control over themselves.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Pool was tiny and they were drunk adults in the pool with children, which did not make me feel comfortable so most of the time I kept the children out of the pool.

Entertainment

The only ok entertainment was the comedy show

Children's Programs

1 out of 5
The only activity for the children to do was to go to camp ocean located on the front of the ship which the motion was increasingly worse, compared to the rest of the ship, which the children could not tolerate
