Review summary

If you like slow services, same food and same entertainment everyday then this is your cruise. The buffet menu for breakfast and lunch don't change by much, I'll say about 80% is the same. My room service attendant don't clean my room until like 3 in the afternoon, I've seen him about twice only during my whole trip. The one time I tried the main dining room for breakfast, the service was slow. I didn't even get my coffee until after I finished my fruit cup, and another couple left because after 15 minutes and they got nothing, they walked off. I had to flag the matre'd to get more creamer even though I've ask the waiter and he never brought it. We went as a group, and the room were not far, or so we though when we booked it, but apparently the access to the rooms were on opposite side, layout was not convenient. They supply bottle water etc in the room, but I never got a bottle, but I was charged for it.
The outdoor water slide was nice, the pool is salt water and the hot tub was just above luke warm. I didn't try the rope course or rock climbing but looks fine. Zip line was never opened. Teppanyaki was good. I like the live band in Manhattan room during dinner.

Yes there is a zip line on the breakaway that is a part of the rope course and it was closed when I did it.

Well im betting the reason the zip line was never opened is because there isnt even one on the Breakaway!

Your room attendant is not only YOUR room attendant so you wouldn't see him that much. Do you know how many rooms they actually take care of? That's why you have the phone to contact them if you need something. They stay busy. You finishing your fruit cup before you got your coffee was funny to me. Just made me think of the little fruit cups in the stores. 2 or 3 spoonfuls and its gone lol. Idk if that was the same type of fruit cup but it was just funny to read.

So only 1 star I'm going on my fourth trip on the ship in a few days.I had and always have a great experience was it really that bad to warrant one star.You know you had a good time a few things were not to your liking but it is better than 1 star.😎
