Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
We had two teenagers in room with us. I did not like that there was no pull down bunk for one like on other ships. Instead it took up all of the floor space.

Ship tip

Don't assume the itinerary won't change. We found out on board they changed one of the ports and no one has yet to tell me why.
