I guess if you like food and a lot drinking, it's not a bad deal, but I'm a wine drinker and not a heavy hard liquor guy. Again, had to cover a lot of sea to get from place-to-place so it was pretty much a boat ride.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Service was great and menu was OK. However 4200 people on the boat is pushing it since every one eats at the same time. Food was spotty since Le Bistro did everything well while the Ocean Blue (seafood) needs to learn you don't need a ton of salt in a Cioppino and that it's Potatoes Au Gratin and not potato pizza.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
I only used the fitness center, but it's fine for the space available.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The Jersey Boys was pretty well done though they had to cancel opening. The other shows were OK also. May want to rethink the sound in the theater since all the speakers were up front and cranked to 11 and distorted at times. Surround speakers would be better.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Stewards and wait help were excellent.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Well, with the exception of too many people at times, it was fine. The layout around the atrium was tight and jammed sometime, but that's more due to the number of people.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Robert Carmelita was very responsive and the place was clean. It is cramped, but what can you do I guess. Only thing is maybe make the detergent more neutral since I did wake up with puffy eyes unlike home.
Ship tip
Be careful about the free Internet. 150 minutes is OK, but I thought clock stopped when I exited the app. You need to login AND logout. So my first session burnt all my minutes. NO phone call is worth $5/minute.
