Review summary

Would I do it again, I don’t know. Maybe bigger is not better. This was a floating art gallery, I didn’t spend this kind of money to look an art. I thought it was wasted space you could have used for something fun for everyone.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Buffets a flop, cold food, scrambled egg soup, poached no soft boiled just a real hassle. Order a drink, waiter takes card and doesn’t come for a half hour. I finely get up and hunt him to our card back and the order was WRONG

Oceanview Cafe

Someone PLEASE TEACH THESE GUYS HOW TO MAKE SCRAMBLED EGGS THAT DONT FLOAT. Or what piece of WHITE BREAD IS..Oh my God what a struggle for a damn sandwich. And drinks wasn’t much better ask for a Gold Peak wth ice. He brings ice tea from the machine.NO Gold Peak Tea with a glass of ice , he comes back with glass of ice no TEA. We give up and I go to the bar myself.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
We came with the expectation of big shows, not a singer from Las Vegas and some guy on a keyboard. Just didn’t cut it. Sure not like the last six cruises we’ve taken. The casino was a joke. It by no means there for our enjoyment. By the third day the word had spread thru the ship . “ wants get fu?!!# just go to the Casino they do a great job , where else can you drop $100 and not get a single bonus , not one. Someone referred to it as the worst casino on the high seas and, then started comparing casinos on other ships . You lose!!!
