Review summary

The ship was nice, it seemed though that there were not enough staff to accomodate the size of the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Waiters did not follow fine dining protocol.The food was never served warm.There was not enough variation in the menu.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

There was only one extravangaza song and dance show, the rest of the shows were very average. Comedians mostly funny, again, not what I have come to expect from a cruise.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5

Not very many varied and exciting activities for the tweens to do.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

The best service we had all week was in the casino area. We knew we could get a drink there, and the staff seemed to know us the best of anywhere on the ship.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

There were nice extras in the cabin, toothpaste, cold remedies etc...The room was plenty big for 3 of us to fit in comforatably.
