Review summary

Felt that the ship was overcrowded but maybe because it was a bank holiday. More geared up to suit families and groups than couples. Prices were expensive.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Very spacious but the decor was very old fashioned and tired : 1970/80s style

Ship tip

Don’t book when it’s a bank holiday. Also, bear in mind that this is obviously a family / group oriented ship
