Review summary

My cruise overall was very good, I met 2 staff members from my home country, I felt good meeting the executive chef (was my brother's math student in high school), and the executive housekeeper also family friend. I enjoyed the free style dining very much, and I also enjoyed not having waiters in my face on deck forcing me to purchase drinks like on some other ships. I'm an occasional drinker so when someone keep asking you every 15 min if you are ready for that drink is very annoying, so this was very good.

The pool area was quite relaxing.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

I attended 2 shows and they were excellent. I spent most of my time in the casino at nights.

Children's Programs

1 out of 5

I had no kids on board. I did not want to rate but your system would not allow me to use n/a, so you get a 1 star.

Had issues with the toilet, had to press several times for it to flush. One night it would not flush no matter how we tried, had to call maintenance in the middle of the night.
