Review summary

Enjoyed my family time! Loved the ship's Americana theme.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Quick and painless

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Really disappointed in the quality of the food in the main dining room. I expect sub par in a buffet (which was pretty good all considering). But really disappointed in the food quality in main dining. Beverage... My mother would ask if they had a certain soda and they would just tell her no and not even look to see if they had it. When another bar staff member was there they would magically have it. Because they want to look.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

I did not participate in any of the ship's activities.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The musicians in the main lobby area on Deck 3 were amazing! We really enjoyed them.

Children's Programs

No kids on board

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our dedicated room stewards and main dining staff were amazing. 10 out of 10.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

I loved the ship's design, the layout was a little confusing at times. Common areas were clean and well maintained. Love the Americana theme.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

I really liked the size of the cabin. The beds were amazingly comfortable. The couch bed was not comfortable for my sister. The deck was kind of salty and corroded.
