This was an enjoyable cruise. One meal disappointment and a customs snafu did not take away from a wonderful voyage. It was good to be on the sea. I would do it again. Staff are friendly and professional. Can't wait till my next voyage
Embarkation

Went surprisingly well
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
My only food complaint was the usually reliable go to Cagney's was a disappointment. We had a porterhouse and a ribeye. Steak looked good but had a lot of inedible fat or gristle that wasn't seen until you started chewing. La Cucina was good. Teppanyaki to me is the best meal and moderno did not disappoint. Taste was good, chicken cordon bleu but I substituted potato croquettes for potato salad which goes better with it. Buffet, I only had breakfast, omelettes, which were good. The velvet meal was not bad. Read bad reviews but it's not a bad meal. Shouldn't be an upcharge though
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
There was as much or as little to do as you wanted to. I didn't do any of the outdoor activities on this cruise
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Plenty of good music with the dj and Jakob was really good on the piano. Didn't go to six or burn the floor. Seen them already but they were good when I saw them. Enjoyed the music with velvet. Wasn't into fire and ice. Their renditions of songs missed the mark for me. Games shows and activities were a good amount. Painting class seemed interesting but didn't get to it. Did not go to the magician or comedians
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
The staff were friendly, engaging and professional. Always a smile and a greeting to you. I think they're understaffed as wait times for certain things were longer than normal. Eduardo our room steward was outstanding and any request we made, if possible, he took care of
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Shipped seemed to be clean and whenever a group left, someone would come and fix the rearranged chairs back to an orderly design
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Club balcony. Avg size cabin with a bigger bathroom which I appreciate being a tall person. I fit ok in the bigger shower
Ship tip
Be patient. They're still not fully stocked and I think not fully staffed. No facial tissues. Certain liquors no longer stocked. Some wait times for service
Did not go due to Fiona. Went to Boston instead. Eta 1 PM. Hour delay due to a ship leaving late. Then almost 3 hrs to get off that boat with a customs nightmare. Finally get off the boat almost 5 pm was told be back by 9. Then find out through a chat that we didn't have to be back until 3 a.m.. Still enjoyed a local brewery and then to a burger place.
Tinker is was ok. 1 more level would have been better. We were right over shakers lounge and could hear the music. Not real loud but you could hear it.
