Review summary

Was a nice weekend getaway. Overall great time and value but disappointed in the room steward. Only saw her the first day and once on the last day at sea. Definitely not the usual service we've received in our other 2 cruises where are steward was seen EVERY day and even multiple times a day, smiling and remembering our names

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Overall everyone was great. Would give 5 but our room steward was hardly seen. Was probably our worst one so far. Shocking as we thought that being in the suites would result in the same or better service we've seen on our 2 cruises prior.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
While it was clean, you could tell the ship was heading to dry dock in a few weeks. Top floor/mini golf deck smelled like sewer too.
