Review summary

The staff, for the most part, were the best of the best. Food - excellent. The sailing was beautiful - very smooth. You never knew when the shio was docking. The bed was actually very comfortable, even though it did not look like it. A little dated, but clean. The dining staff on all levels were absolutely the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was very hot the day we were there. The train ride was too hot to sit - and the windows didnot open. The vews were beautiful, though.

Pros: The food was always exceptional

Cons: Our group included a handicapped person. The ship did not have the greatest assessibility for her scooter. It was difficult to get to some parts of the ship, so was frustrating at times. ..
