3 out of 5

Don’t like the menu changes in main dining room and special restaurants. Service was good but food in main dining room was not up to par, little or no flavor.

Onboard Activities

Shows were good and always something going on but spent most of our time in the Casino!

Entertainment

Service and Staff

All were very pleasant. Room attendant Raj was met all our needs and kept our room clean and fresh towels. Waiter Alexander always seamed glad to see us and quickly took care of us.

Ship Quality

Very clean and the correct size for us and easy to get around. Certain time’s of the day steps were the only way to get up or down.

Balcony near steps showing some wear but bed comfortable and bathroom and shower worked good
