MDR is still a great experience. Food is good and selection is adequately varied. The specialty restaurants are a fantastic option for the evening meal.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

This ship stays clean and is still new enough that accessibility is not a problem except at the Brass Magnolia. Deck six can get congested.

Cabin / Stateroom

We cruise with a scooter and a wheelchair. The room was large enough to accommodate both.

The new port area is finally open and looks fantastic. Do not plan to find any good deals though. Stores are expensive
