Review summary

We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise. We loved all the storage space in the room. The staff were very friendly and accommodating and we appreciated having the shuttle buses available from the port to Florence and Rome. The ship is very nicely decorated. The swimming pools are small and overrun with children.

The layout of the toilet and the shower was a bit different but the shower was very roomy. The worst of it was the sink in the bedroom area. Sometimes one needs privacy brushing ones teeth especially if you have a plate!
