Review summary

Most of the cruise was ok. My luggage tag got ripped off & I didn't get my suitcase till 8:30 at night. That was not optimum. The ship is nice enough....just maybe too big for my taste.... too many people. But the worst thing was a crew member named Kevin who was a judge at a karaoke show who was insulting to me when I made a comment about his opinion of one of the passengers in the contest. I think part of his job is to handle passengers in a more respectful way. If he can't take the heat he should find another job. I will be filing a complaint with the cruise line as well. If you like lots of crowds & an unorganized disembarkation you will be ok.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

The room was definitely small, but I expected that. The pictures are pretty representitive of the space. However I didn't like finding out that some of the solo cabins were larger & don't recall having a choice at booking to choose a larger space. And the window to the corridor doesn't really offer a view of the corridor at all...just a little light at night. And when your neighbor flushes it sounds like garbage cans being dragged on a sidewalk. Not great at night. The shower is small & a large person would be uncomfortable, especially a tall or big man would find it tight...and no place to store your soap. There was a dispensor with shower gel & shampoo but if u have favorite brands there isn't a place to store them. Sink is VERY small. If they added maybe 20-30 sq ft it would be better.

Ship tip

Spend some time studying the deck plans before you go so you have some sort of idea how to get around. Its good that a lot of the action is on 3 decks that are together....but the upper decks can get confusing.
