Ship was always clean, but in my opinion, the layout leave so eth8ng to be desired! Never enough seats for any venue, entertainment and game shows ampnad demonstrations all done in the way overcrowded atrium. Never seats, people standing, way too loud!!!

Took ship excursion to beach. Did not take us to beach mentioned in excursion description. Beach was very rocky in water, beach was dirty, were told we had to sit at end of beach in worn out and sometimes broken chairs. TERRIBLE excursion!
