Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
King size bed should be replaced with queen size or twin beds in the smaller state rooms. Hard to get around them

Ship tip

Suggest to take late dining and early showtime. 2nd seating is not so crowded and staff have more time to spoil you. You can look for others shows/entertainment after relaxing at dinner.
