Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Design was nice, ship was very clean. Don’t like the style of decoration though. We are traditional and the ship was very much modern art

Cabin / Stateroom

Actually we were in 11267, got upgraded to concierge class. Still don’t like the infinite veranda, would prefer a real balcony

Ship tip

If you want a real balcony, book a balcony. These are not the same

Ports of call

Piraeus (Athens), Greece
