Review summary

MOVE THE SMOKING AREA TO AN OPEN DECK SECTION. Smoke remains and travels in a covered area (next to the main deck pool!) and affects everyone in proximity. Screaming kids, mediocre meal offerings,.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quite fast, impressive.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Mediocre at best. Nothing memorable here. Often times hot meal items were often barely warm, buffet items dry and over cooked.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Pools adequate, hot tubs taken over with children and families. Some effort was made to prevent groups from taking over for indefinite periods.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Dinner shows just awful. First night dinner show (Rock Legends) was awful, amateurish, left early. Comedian was quite good. Music variety non-existant.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Great follow-up and follow through. Professional and pleasant.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Clean but dark. The covered smoking next to the pool affected everyone in the area. MOVE THE SMOKING AREA TO AN OPEN DECK SECTION. Smoke remains and travels in a covered area (next to the main deck pool!) and affects everyone in proximity.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Extremely small shower but neat and tidy.

Thanks for sharing. I'm sorry you had such a bad time. We thought the Rock Legends show was pretty good.

You do realize this is a peer to peer review site. Nothing on this app is monitored by any of the cruise lines, so complaints and suggestions will not be seen by those that can affect a change on board
