Bartenders in the Martini bar went out of their way to make specialty drinks for us. They were always friendly and entertaining.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
Did not like the French style bathroom design with the toilet and shower separately as you enter the room. The sink was in front of the bed. A curtain was used to section off the bathroom. The spacing in the room was uncomfortable and cramped.

Great ship, except the layout of the staterooms.
