Review summary

I guess if you want a cheap, short cruise, then it isn't horrible.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Other than waiting for one of the grandkid's COVID test results, it was pretty smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was so/so on this cruise. I even got a steak from the Chophouse and was comped because it was tough. Overall, nothing to write home about.

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
About half of the crew I had interaction with were unfriendly. I had to ask numerous times for things and on 2 occasions had to elevate to higher up.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
I do like the promenade.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Nice size and layout. However, not one electrical outlet on one side of the room. Had to get an extension cord to run to nightstand for wife's APAP. One of the robes in the closet had crap stains on the inside. Glasses in bathroom were filthy; one had lip marks on it. Not impressed.

Ship tip

Don't.

Lack of electrical outlets. I understand that there is a USB port on the telephone.

Thanks for the review. The short Cruises tend to be more of a party atmosphere than a seven day or longer cruise
