Service and Staff

5 out of 5
A bit slower than we are used to in the bars and restaurants. Although we were traveling with friends and were frequently a group of 10 so perhaps that had a bearing

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
That was beautiful and immaculate. Very impressed with the cleanliness of the restrooms in the public areas. Spacious and well maintained

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Spacious. Primarily because not much furniture. No sofa or coffee table. Very little drawer or shelf space but serviceable. Not used to leaving before breakfast and returning after lunch and the room still not made up

Ship tip

Make the most of available drawer and shelf space. Maybe bring magnetic hooks for hats jackets etc
