Need to improve dehumidifying. The bed and pillows felt damp every evening. Even my clothes started to feel damp. Food was good and plenty of deck chairs. Shops on ship were only open at night and not impressed with daytime on ship activities.

Constant feeling of dampness and TV was not located in a place where it was comfortable to watch from bed, only sofa.

Ship tip

Think twice before choosing it.

Shops are open during the day on sea days but in port no. It's tax and duty free. We would have to pay tax on the ship. When you're sailing in international waters, you're not in any country.
