Cabin was very clean and stayed that way. Staff was on top of their game.

Smaller ship? 3,600 passengers had 160,000 GT. Not sure what is meant by nickel & diming you to death. We rarely purchase anything above the basic cruise fare and gratuities and have a great time. We have always found a good variety and quality of food in both the dining room and buffet and never had a need to go to a specialty restaurant.
