Review summary

I will save the readers alot of time, Pools close at 6pm, service sucked, food was a 4 out of 10, nothing for kids to do thats why they are free, LOL I lost weight on this cruise. That is not how a cruise is supposed to be at all! Did I mention that the pools, including hot tubs, close at 6pm? The buffet-cafeteria-snack place, is only open about 7 hours a day. Other ships have food available about 20-22 hours a day.
