Review summary

There were way too many people crammed on this ship. Lots of waiting for elevators, lines at the Buffet, no available chaise lounges in the sun. I couldn’t go in the pool at all, because there was no room to get tin. The food was mediocre.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
I don’t know why we were given appointment times to board the ship. We still had to wait in a room filled with about a thousand people to get on.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The service in the Tropicana room was Excellent. Our room steward “Walter “. Was terrific! The people who worked in the casino were very rude!

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
It was clean, but poorly designed.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
The mattress was old and worn out. The comforter was ripped.

Ship tip

Only book the penthouse, or big suites. You will need your own balcony to lay out on. People hog all the the chaise lounges, and keep there towels and bags on them all day.

Sounds like you should cruise HAL.

I’ve been on this ship twice and never had any bad experience. Going for a third time later this year

Well I think you picked the cruise and the cruise ship so that’s what you got.
