A wonderful cruise, but over-hyped ship.

Review summary

The itinerary was really what impressed me with this cruise. The ship while still nice was somewhat disappointing in some aspects.
-Calling elevators
-Brand new carpet coming apart and easily stained
-Theater that had few good seats
-The lack of adult-only swimming pool
-One-floor midship dining room with public school-like tables (unlike the really nice finished tables on the other ships).
-Much of the ship felt copy-pasted from Breeze but with less character/imagination
-LCD funnel in lobby was neat, but lack of a real atrium seemed underwhelming.
-Floor separators that were larger and frequently tripped over.
-Pushiest spa staff of 10 cruises.

Upsides..
-The Sky Ride Make sure you bring closed-toed shoes.
-The outdoor seating for dining venues
-Havana Bar live music
-The enhanced Serenity with salad bar
-The larger water slides and kaliedo-slide with inner-tube.
-FINALLY a digital photo gallery. Welcome to present technology!
-Interactive TVs in cabins.
