In general the cruise was good apart from the noise in the cabin issue.
Although only our third cruise with MSC, we had Gold Cards due to their loyalty match scheme which gave us a few little perks
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarked early but as usual general signage was not great to assist in directing you
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Actually felt no compulsion to use the main restaurant as we were quite content with the grills, pizza and buffet selections
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Pools are salt water and well maintained. Hot tubs were difficult to get in and out of and difficult to find space in with large groups hogging them
Entertainment
2 out of 5
Very much aimed at the Italian customers which made it difficult to join in with, not that we wanted to
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Staff were very friendly and attentive although more were needed as they struggled to cope at times, especially clearing tables for use.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Wil laid out and spotlessly clean
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Very spacious cabin with nice clear view out of window but it needed cleaning on the outside.
Shower was small and curtain stuck to you when in the shower.
Major issue with hydraulic machinery noise which meant we never had a good night's sleep.
Reported every day but no solution found
Moved to a vacant cabin once night but smelt of cigarette smoke
Received a token 'Sorry' with Prosecco and Canapes, not exactly bed as we were on a drinks package
Shuttle bus drops you off in an area close to old town but no clear directions to get there bir with the adventure, harbour is lovely and I recommend the octopus!
