They did have plumbing issues. While brushing teeth noted water coming out brown. Also toilet backed up with black greasy goo. Could here plumbing gurgling is the only way to describe it. Did smell the infamous poo smell in main areas. Luckily we did not smell it in our room.

Glad you enjoyed it and love the attitude. We love the smaller ships as well. I see many that complain that there was “nothing to do” or “nothing they could eat” on the ship. It seems most have forgotten, or never learned, how to enjoy themselves with simple things such as relaxing on deck watching the ocean go by, reading a book, doing a crossword puzzle or taking a nap. Someone who is bored or can’t find something to eat on a cruise says more about them than it does the ship.
