Review summary

Cruise was good. Going back this Sunday for back to back. Wish it was a newer ship & better entertainment.

Embarkation

Quick & Easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Menu is very boring and tired. Hasn’t been changed in years. Hard to find hot coffee. The pots are old and need new heating elements. One thing they need to do is put the breakfast bread & multigrain bread on deck 3 for breakfast. They use to have these readily available before when they served pastries & danish on the tray. Since they stopped doing so, they have to go hunting for them. Makes it harder on the servers.

Onboard Activities

Same old same old

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Good singer, seen production shows before, missed ice skating show. Why can’t each ship have different show?

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Crew members are always great. You can see the difference from before the pandemic. But the new crew members are leaning. They need to be trained more fully.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Crew members are always cleaning the ship. But there must be a water problem. See blowing everywhere and my cabin was musty. I had an allergic reaction and suffered with swollen eyes all week.
