Review summary

I am a little torn of the whole cruise. The food was "okay" and not really, really great like people talk about. This was probably because I was really looking forward to the Q and it was a bad experience of food. The Teppinaki (sp) was VERY fun and the best food on the entire cruise!!

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Garden was WAY too crowded and could never find seating; need more dining than just the Garden for open dining buffet types. Q dining was not great; food was overcooked.

Ship Quality

Garden and Observation design needs changed. Make the Observation a Garden 2. WAY too many people in Garden and not enough room for people to sit and eat (especially for breakfasts!!!!)

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very nice but our USB chargers in the lamps next to both sides of the bed did NOT work and this was very frustrating.

Ship tip

If you don't mind crowds, sail on Bliss.
