Review Summary
My overall impression of the ship is very good. It was our first cruise so I have nothing to compare it to, but we were very pleasantly surprised.Ship Experiences
Food and Dining
Everything about the food was excellent. The fine dining was superb. Food was always available but yet fresh and plentiful. There were so many ethnic foods. The sushi could have been a bit better, but then again I am picky about my sushi. Very good dining experiences especially in the evening.
Entertainment
We didn't use all of the activities offered, but the entertainment was very good. I love Broadway shows and particularly liked the production the ship put on about Broadway. All very good.
Service and Staff
The friendliness and customer service of the staff was excellent. Our dinner staff were very attentive and didn't miss a thing. I enjoyed the international staff and like striking up conversations about their homelands.
Ship Quality
The Millennium is an older ship, but very well maintained. The one thing we really liked is that we never felt crowded on the ship in spite of the fact that it was almost sold out.
Cabin / Stateroom
The amenities were great. We were not wanting for anything. Of course, the staterooms were not spacious, but I have had small rooms in Europe so was used to it. It was very comfortable and the beds were much better than expected.
Ports of Call
We took the time to go to the Alaska Brewing Co. They was very interesting.
