The food, entertainment and service were outstanding! The ship layout was a little funky, but we had an amazing week. Dress in layers because it can go from cool to warm pretty quickly! Did okay in the casino too…..lots of winners around the casino.🤑

Ship Quality

Large atrium with noisy entertainment was right next to restaurant reservation desk and customer service…. What a bizarre set up!!! The hallway aisles to the rooms were the narrowest we have ever encountered😜

Cabin / Stateroom

We’ve done balcony’s and interior rooms dozens of times…..but this was the tiniest interior room we’ve ever had! Not even a chair….a nice bed, but no room to walk on one side, and a 3 foot wide vanity! I felt like I was in a dollhouse

Ports of call

Seattle, Washington Did not visit port

Too dangerous of a town for me…..not interested
