Review summary

Disappointed with the ships appearance as it was old and worn with no grand showcase area. Upset with crew members for fighting among them selves in front of us. Wet luggage upon loading the ship (which could have easily been prevented by a tarp) causing our group to miss the evening show to sort through everything and then waited 24 hours before our clothes were returned to us (expectedly the cleaning was complimentary). Spa employee did not show up for my scheduled massage causing our family to miss an entire morning of activities for nothing. Obvious cut in expenses as no craft classes, no cooking classes, etc. offered.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food fairly good. Two restaurants served the same menu which defeated the free style concept. Minimual higher end sea foods.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Live shows were very good. Free activities were at a minimum.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Generally okay, but no one went 'above and beyond'. Never saw cruise director on ship.

Ship Quality

Ship's appearance as it was old and worn with no grand showcase area.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Room size and storage good. Pillows hard as rocks. TV small and old with minumal stations (we missed all the Olympic coverage).

Ports of call

St. George's, Bermuda
