Review summary

dont come on this ship expecting to be "wowed". she is older and shows her age. good for relaxing. you get what you pay for.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

clearing to get on the ship was fast but the escalators were broken so we all had to wait in a long line for the elevator that only held 5-6 people at a time
