Review summary

i was already onboard, saw prices had dropped for me to turn it into a b2b, so i was very happy with price. My cabin was dirty, carpet was an issue and my cabin steward Simonete service was 50% of what my former steward Adonis was , she only showed up between hours of 2pm-7pm and i tipped her 20.00 in advance on 1st day with request of fresh ice 2x a day..

Food and Dining

the Buffet was very boring, the main dining was ok, Manhattan room ok, Cagneys was great, LeBistro ok, La Cucina was great,

Cagney's Steakhouse

4 out of 5

i find La Cucina has improved their menu, Cagneys is consistently good but portions are getting smaller.O'Sheehans is one of my favorite quick meals for breakfast.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

cabin steward did not service room until late afternoon so getting ice was a challenge. She also was early in evenings, usually rt after 6 pm...her shift seemed to be 2pm-7pm, she did not change sheets until i had to leave a note on day 7
