Review summary
This was our 2nd cruise and our last one was on a bigger ship that had more things to do... We found ourselves getting bored on the ship... The best entertainment was a comedian Dave Heenan but the other entertainment I've seen better at the local high school... We really were unhappy with the drink situation as we are not big on acoholic drinks and if you wanted something to drink there was only 1 place to get drinks that was included in your cruise and it got crowded at times as it was in the corner of a restaurant and only 2 people could fit in to get a drink at a time... most of the times they were out of tea, cups, or ice... The other thing was that food was not really always available there were hours where no food was being served which we did not like and food selection when it was available was not that great... We tried to make reservations at one of the speciately places but they were all booked up for the entire cruise by the time we tried to book a reservation (I guess people booked the whole week the first day - which we thought was a little unfair due to the limited seating)... Personally I liked the concept of the freestyle cruising but would rather take a real cruise on a bigger ship than the crown...Ship experiences
