All staff we had contact with was very helpful and polite. Room steward was outstanding. We loved the baby and baby animals she made us. Wanted to bring them home

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I love this class of ship, second time on Mariner. Very clean. Looking a little tired, but still a grand old lady. Like my favorite pair of shoes. She will be spruced up in dry dock

Cabin / Stateroom

Received a upgrade. Room was perfect for 2 of us.
