I agree, why 4 stars? just looking at the overall ship rating, one would think it was a decent decision. Reading the reviews (after booking), I really don't know what to think.

twangster is correct. The ship is old and that is a short itenirary. Try a newer ship for a better experience.

The 3-4 night cruises shouldn't be used to judge any cruise line. Try a 7 day before giving up on them.
