Review summary
The service was tired and nervous as we started the cruise. They calmed and were friendlier as time went on. Generally they tried their best to please. I really liked the dinner servers.
We had a problem with plumbing in our cabin bathroom. 3 times. Tried to let it go, but they were discouraging incidents when we were to be having the vacation of a life time. They took care of it promptly.
The decor was a bit tired. The room was dated.
Finally at end of trip I bought a photo and paid for it. I have never received it, and I have contacted the picture people and the cruise line. If they cant deliver my picture I would have liked a refund.
I had a previous good experience on the Holland America but this time i felt I made a bad choice.
