The people working on the ship and fellow cruisers made this trip great. We were always happy and interacting with others. The ship is older, and generally well maintained, although some furniture is not desirable is some places.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Key package, no wait. Confiscated a ship approved extension cord from carry on.. but not the exact same one in the checked baggage.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Tides (MDR) really strived to provide great options - spices could have been used more, to highlight the meats, etc.
Steakhouse, served Lobster Bisque, which was shell broth, with sherry. No cream, no lobster. Not to our liking, however, memorable experience.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Very clean ship, (elevator corners had dust bunnies, but the rest of the ship was very clean. A lot of the furniture (couch in room) tables in Schooners were rough around the edges and past their age for replacement.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Immaculate!! Great Views, good spot for rough seas. Very comfortable mattress. Couch was old and had worn holes. Shower was bigger than anticipated. Bathroom might be small, but it works well, didn’t feel too small when using. Pillows are phenomenal, Bedding was perfect.
Ship tip
Be sure about meeting times and places for excursions. We had gotten a lot of conflicting information, but made it everywhere in time.
