My only complaint were the windows- they were filthy

Cabin / Stateroom

Three of us were comfortable- only complaint was seating. A small couch would have been great.

Ship tip

If you’re looking for bells and whistles this is not the ship for you. It’s a smaller ship. I liked it because it never felt crowded.

This is where we ended our cruise and stayed for a couple days. Tivoli Gardens was nice - especially if you have kids. It’s an amusement park but it is pricey.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5

Went quickly, found our luggage but then the way they arranged for taxis was not well organized. But the transfers to the airport probably went better.
