Review summary

This the cruise ship was clean, the decor attractive and the stateroom had good storage.  The food was similar to dining at my mom's retirement home only not served as hot. Staff were not very friendly or accommodating, we saw our steward only 3 times, at embarkation, when he reported breaking some eyeglasses and when we sought him out to clean up our room that had not been done. There were more than 900 children, many running unsupervised all over the ship. Extra fees and charges were everywhere. Ports were remote from sights and made it difficult to experience local culture other than on official excursions. There were very few shows in the theater and entertainment in other venues was brief and crowded.
