Review summary

A very average cruise. Too crowded in the buffet area and tables were difficult to navigate around. Those with mobility issues like me had a tough time getting and keeping a table.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was clean and well maintained. Too close to mid ship where all of the noise was. Cabin steward did a great job and was very helpful.

Ship tip

Traveling in February can be met with rain and rough seas. Plan accordingly and be prepared to miss ports and or excursions.

The radiance was the same for us also. Seems to draw lots of families and crowds due to the short cruise and not as many options out of Long Beach.

I would completely agree with your brunch experiences, but why didn't you just do brunch and dinner in the MDR and avoid the crazies?
