Very enjoyable vacation. Incredible stops on the itinerary - you could take a picture almost every step. Ship was in great shape and crew fantastic. Service was the best we've seen since starting back cruising. Only negatives - Masks required in theater and casino at the time we sailed. Europe was open for business.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Embarked in Civitavecchia and while the terminal was adequate, there were no special check-in lines for higher loyalty levels or suites.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Might be old, but the ship is in very good shape.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Adequate size on deck 12. The balcony has an overhang for the pool deck which does obscure view. It was our choice for deck 12, but in the future, we would not go above Deck 10 on a S-Class ship.
Ship tip
Need to visit the "Hide Away" to find a quiet place to read and relax. Also has a self service coffee machine for tea or coffee.
We spent 2 pre-cruise days on the waterfront. Many restaurants to choose and we were pleasantly surprised how affordable they were. Meals were less there than in the states for more quantity.
Had an issue with our private car meeting us at the ship. If you hire private conveyance, make sure they have port credentials to pick up at the ship, else you need to shuttle to outside the port to get your ride.
