Review summary
It was my first cruise & I was some what impressed with the dining. However, where cruising was difficult for me was as follows: As a 69 year old women, on her first cruise, I was not aware of how reading your papers, left in the rooms, was so important.I saved for a long time, for the cruise, and was disappointed on the cost of photos. It was brought to my attention, by customer service, that if i had read the papers I would have known that I could have saved $100 by buying the package on the first 2 or 3 days of the cruise. How sad. I wanted my photos and the cost was over $300.00 when, if told would have been slightly over $200. The stateroom attendant was sufficient in what he does & it almost became annoying on his attention to us.In the afternoons, after returning from the excursions or pool, he would knock on the door to see if he could re-do the room. It was not brought to our attention the constant use of the do not disturb sign. Although I did enjoy my first cruise, I was disappointed in the cost of on board items. Your website states no water, drinks or alcohol can be brought on board. However, after arriving at the pier we found this to be untrue. We then became aware that we could have brought wine, cokes and water. The information on the website cost us and additional $70 plus dollars for cokes for my roommate while I had to drink water from the tap, Your cruise cost enough for both of us to travel and the added $170 plus dollars did create and unpleasant taste.
