Review summary

The staff and service on the ship were excellent. The entertainment was very good with some very good singers on the ship. The worst food I have ever had on a ship.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Long line to get in but not a big problem

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Food was bland, tasteless and unappetizing in most areas of the ship. The only bright spot was dinner in the Crown Grill. I lost 1/2 a pound on a 10 day cruise.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Used the fitness center for the treadmill because it was usually to cold and windy to walk on the deck. Fitness Center was good.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

There were some very good production shows. I was impressed that they did 4 of them.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the service staff we encountered were great!!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Despite the fact that the ship was old (by cruise ship standards) and ready to go into drydock, the ship was clean and well cared for.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Good size, clean. Only detractions were only 2 outlets in the cabin.

Ship tip

Take salt and seasoning for the food
