Review summary

Overcrowded, cigarette smoke everywhere, poor coordination and communication of information to guests. Cafeterias were constantly overcrowded with massive lines that would take at least half an hour to sit through, usually longer. Sit-down restaurant service was inexcusably slow, once taking over an hour to get our first dish. Food was usually acceptable at best, but getting fed was an issue with the long lines. The smoking areas were not enforced, so guests would smoke directly outside the doors to outside, smoking up the ship's hallways. If you're an American, don't go on this cruise. You cannot access the 'Costa app' in the US because it doesn't meet regular app regulations. This makes getting basic information and reservations difficult. We had massages reserved but got sick on the ship and had to cancel them - they still made us pay. Worst cruise experience ever - never Costa again.

Food and Dining

Long lines and crowded cafeterias, long waits at sit-down restaurants. This was not the fault of the employees - there were very obvious flaws in their food catering system.

Ship Quality

It smelled of strong cigarette smoke everywhere because guests would never smoke in the designated smoking areas. They would light up right outside the doorways and smoke up the ship hallways.
