Review summary
Overall the cruise is reasonably good. The food is acceptable but could be better. The quality of the food can be improved. The housekeeping personnel did keep the rooms cleans, and worked efficiently. The biggest complaint we have is that the pillows and blankets appeared to be used over and over by one cruise after another without actually being laundered. There was a pretty bad and stale odor, especially the pillows. They were so bad that they kept us awake frequently, and we eventually had to wrap the pillows with the towels to reduce the odor. I don't know if the blankets and pillows are ever cleaned.

Ship tip
Don't book room 9087, where the balcony is at the corner and the balconies from the 2 adjacent rooms can easily look into the room's balcony.
