Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Conflict with the times when we would be out of the room, wouldn't come in when one of us was in the room! Always asking if we would leave so he could get in. He was told no! Forget it...😠 EM.

Ship tip

There's a lot of hidden large charges added to the account after you board. If you want coffee and Danish in your room in the morning, it will cost you $7.95 each person! For room service. That's ridiculous!...EM.

my first 2 cruises, I didn't realize you could eat at venetian, aqua and poolside grill for free. so, I ate at the buffet everytime. march 6, I'll be going on my 3rd cruise, now I'm excited to try the different foods. lol
