Service and Staff

our room attendant was very good. Sparkles on the 5th floor pizza place was super !!!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
well maintained but really outdated

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
to small for 4 adults to be comfortable. I have had much better room on my first few cruises both with Carnival and Royal Caribbean. If this is the type of accommodations I get on the next cruise I will look to using other cruiselines

Ship tip

Use a newer ship this one needs a serious up date.

Of course an inside cabin was too small for 4 adults. You should have booked 2 rooms or a suite for that many grown-ups!
