They didn't take the safety messaging serious in their delivery

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Terrible buffet. Same food every day. Eggs take like dishwasher. Serve you drinks in sippy cup looking things, no space, etc. The italian restuarant was horrible. It took 1 hour and 15 min to get our first drink. We paid $15 to cork a bottle and took her 45 min to pour it.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The pools are small, no rock climbing. Boring ship.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Good cruise Director. She needed a bigger team. More live music needed around the ship

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
They were tired. However, my room steward, Natalia was the best I have ever had. Fantastic.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Dirty, expect sleeping quarters.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Room smelt like dirty sheets, the balcony door sucked. Would rather have a sliding door, my curtains had holes in them, but the beds and linens were fantastic.
