Ship Quality

Ship WAS VERY CLEAN however the service in the dinning rooms and specialty dinning rooms was poor. Our balcony cabin design was very poor - would not sail on the Epic again because of the cabin design and cabin lighting. Noise level was very high--

Indeed the layout of Epic is not what you would call "ordinary". It has good points and bad points. Ships like Escape, Breakaway, Getaway, and Bliss are probably more to your liking. Better layouts. Epic was a one off. That's why the order for the sister ship was scrapped.
