Overall pretty good.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Worst room ever! This room should not be booked for anyone looking to relax and get some rest. It is located right over the both ships propellers. All vibration and noises will not allow for an enjoyable experience. I am very disappointed with this. It was my first cruise booked through your site. I will not do it again.

Ship tip

Do not accept a cabin on the rear end of the ship on deck 2.

A lot of people wait to get the lowest price of a cruise and end up with whatever the ship line gives them.

Pick your own cabin and do a little research to see the location.

Sorry you were disappointed with your stateroom. May I ask which site you are referring to that you booked with? Did you not pick your own room? Thank you for your review.

Appreciate your feedback. You learned a valuable lesson on your first cruise; choose your own cabin! We have made similar mistakes even choosing one ourselves. Now our rule is have cabins above and below plus at least 2 doors from the elevators (the dings keep my DH awake). We even tried below the shops, thinking about the hours they are open. Bad move; they start working early and work late often dropping items. Yes, it costs a bit more BUT so worth it. Glad you enjoyed your first cruise otherwise and hope you have many more.
