Review summary

The boat was way too crowded to fully enjoy it. We spent most the time standing on lines. The nightclub also wasn’t a night club it was just a room.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

It was extremely crowded with a lot of confusion as to where the line started.

They took fancy photos in the middle of hallways leading to unsafe buildups of passengers.

The door to the outdoor part of our cabin was extremely difficult to open and required two people to open it.
