Review summary

Had a great time. Met lots of great people. Ship is great and shows we're good.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Super fast. It was just over an hour from leaving our hotel 10 minutes away till we walked on the ship. Whole process was quick and easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Overall food was good. We ate at main dining rooms, Cagney's, The Q, American diner and the Local. The only place that was not to our liking was the Q.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We did games in atrium which was very crowded but fun. Also bingo in theater was fun.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Saw both shows, Footloose and Elements. Both were good. Couldn't get in to comedy shows or Beatles. However the cavern bar on the waterfront was great for watching the Beatles, bands and karaoke.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff members were great. Very friendly and hard working. James the bartender at Cavern bar on waterfront was awesome! So was our room steward Owen.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5

Overall room was great and spacious. Bathroom was large and spacious. Loved the double sinks and large shower with tub. The location was awful 😖 It is located directly above the Cavern club. So all shows you hear as if you are there in person. Our floor literally vibrated from the music. Karaoke was every night till 11:30!

Ship tip

Overall a great ship and shows. Make sure to research room location. I thought I did but was off. We didn't use pool but it was very crowded when we walked up there.
