Review summary

In our stateroom the closets smelled terrible. The A/C did not work correctly. To many dress up night in the dinning room. Activities were not announced just prior to it so you could get to where you needed to be to enjoy what was happening. The cleaning staff were wonderful and did anything they could for you. Out on the Lido deck everything was cleaned many times a day.

Very dissapointed the closets smelled terrible. And A/C did not cool down. The stewards did cater to you and our bathroom was always very clean. They did not touch our personal things if we left anything out.
