Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Most of the staff was friendly and wonderful. The dining staff and cleaning staff were incredible. We had an issue with the gym desk staff. On the first day, we submitted a waiver for our 14 year old athlete to join us at the gym. Most staff was kind, but one team member kept trying to kick him out. On the last day, he refused us entry. I understand why children are not allowed in the gym, however, we were informed that as long as he was over 13 and had a waver that it would be allowed. He is an elite athlete, and this is one of the reasons that we book the ship during this time so that he could continue his training.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was big, clean and comfortable. The only disappointment was that we only got one towel animal. This is my son's favorite part, so he was a little bit disappointed about it.
