Review summary

If I was Valor I would have someone at the elevators helping us the first few days. It was very misleading and confusing when the doors opened and you were suppose to know where to go. I think someone there would be great for the patrons who are new and never been on a cruise before. I was a virgin-cruiser and I felt I needed more help with directions.

Ship tip

I would tell them to know the ship. And if you are not a buffett person eat in the dining rooms they are great.

Glad you had a good time. You may not have noticed, but there is a ship map, just like the paper one they gave you on the wall outside of each elevator which denotes where you are and the location of all major event venues.

Other reviews of this sailing

The ship itself was very unique. Loved the colors and decor. Service was alright. First time wait staff spoke about tips and felt very pushy. We had great food and our room steward was very observant and friendly. Cared about detail.

Nice getaway.

Wont do that one again.
