Review summary

PROS:  Food was excellent except for the desserts.  One dessert which was very good was the chocolate volcano with ice cream and fresh strawberries.

Room attendant was excellent.  Everything very clean and done in timely fashion.

Large bathrooms..

Free ice cream both soft and hard.

Great water slides.  

Adults only pool!!  SUPER

Great fitness area.  Has everything.

Burn the Floor show was great.

CONS:  Very noisy -extremely loud frequent announcements of what was already noted in the daily schedule.  Very loud music hindering conversation at dinner in the main dining room.

Reservations needed for "free" shows.   Very limited access to comedy shows.  Same comedy shows every night.  

We felt a lot of vibration from the propellers every night in bed.  Could even feel it in the buffet dining room on the 15th floor if you sat in the aft of the ship.

Fees for shows.  Never had to pay to attend a show before on any other ship.

Small adult pool area for the number of passengers but it was never crowded because apparently most people thought the water was too cold.    Was not too cold for us so we had plenty of room to swim.

I'd like to sail on this ship someday.  I took note of all your cons.
