Review summary

My family and I enjoyed the cruise more than we had expected. We were with a big family group. we stayed in the most inexpensive rooms and spent very little time in the room. we enjoyed our self and drank and eat all we wanted and spent less than the drink or food packages would have cost. I think if we ever go again we would consider a room upgrade.

Stewrt was excellent. we had the least expensive room and spent very little time there, but there was alsway hot water and the young stewart went out of his way to make our two small children fell special.

I spent money on a spa mini suite. Not much different different than the regular balcony rooms. Was very disappointed in the size. Suite it was not. If you don't spend much time in the room, save your money and use it on other things. I learned my lesson.

You did the best thing by staying in a inexpensive cabin and you went the same places that the people in the suites did, you are a smart cruiser....

I alwsys choose minisuite or balcony. If you try, I don't think you choose inside again 😁

A room with a balcony is absolutely worth it

I always stay in the inside rooms but I do agree that it would be nice to get a window, atleast, or balcony. With a family and mini suite would suit it 👌🏼
