Review summary

Maybe best suited for elderly people, those who like to take the stairs and don’t enjoy buffets.

Great because we arrived late and went right in.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Horrible. Food looked disgusting and had no flavor, it also lacked in diversity. Best thing I had was the bread and butter.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Catered to the elderly. All trivia and even night clubs were 70’s and 80’s themed.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Shows were entertaining .

Service and Staff

Besides the fact that the elevators were always crowded , it was fine.

AC in the room would constantly shut off throughout the night!
