Review summary

Service was good, I liked my steward and all personal was helpful and friendly

Ship Quality

The ship was well maintained and clean. Even elevators were not overcrowded. The only problem was the smoke in the casino's open area with smell spreading to other floors.

The cabin was big, clean and had everything I needed

If you're don't like a smell of smoke don't take your cabin at low floors aft.
