Review summary

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Service was great, food was just mediocre.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Sauna & Steam were were good. Spa staff was very friendly and helpful.

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Its just lazy and cheap to have comedians (should be relagated to the comedy club) and movies shown in place of production shows. Unimpressed by what passes for a Headliner these days.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Wait staff at Table 225 in the Main Dining Room was superb.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

There's a chair that partially blocks the closet door that should be removed from the cabin.

Ship tip

Lower your expectation regarding the entertainment.

Very dangerous and long drive for the view that awaits you. Two words: Gurad Rails! We encountered four (4) accidents on our trip and I have a feeling this is the average.
