Review summary

The entertainment was amazing, best shows! 22 bars/restaurants..food was a 7. Unless you go a large Carte and pay then it's a 10! Staff was phenomenal!!!! Rooms, tight, but we're only in to shower, change and sleep. Balcony room...worth it. Elevators were a bit of a pain, but waiting extra min or stopping at ea, floor shouldn't ruin your vacation. We had issue me with noisy inconsiderate young folk partying all night, told security 2 times, they did move them and comped us an amazing dinner. Always something fun to do, we participated in all games how type things and had a BLAST! Got drink package... totally worth it. Overall the escape was the best I have been on by far, and would go again! Stay away from casino...not worth it.

Bit small, but was good. Only complaint..bathroom needs a night light or dimmer for night time ..the light so bright wakes u up. And u can't use any lights without having your keyboard in slot in room

Wow, you almost got me to plunk my money down to sail aboard this megaship. Here's a tip: I always use the stairs if I'm only one flight away from my destination.

We stayed midship on 15 and found using the stairs wasn't too bad and even helped burning off some of the amazing food Fantastic ship

I would agree this ship is amazing! bocce ball court, grotto falls, spice h20, and Manhatten room were excellent. only complaint that I think is warranted on the ship is the elevator situation. And the amount of food that is uncharged. But truly beautiful, fun and smooth.
