Short cruise that forced us to relax as there was nothing to do on the ship besides eat, drink and sit around. The entertainment and onboard activities leave a lot to be desired. Ship is updated, but the layout is confusing. The pool bars premix drinks so they don't taste right, the bars elsewhere make much better drinks.

Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Breakfast buffet left something to be desired
Lunch buffet was great, lots of options - the sandwiches were delicious and the pizza was excellent
We did not eat at the dinner buffet.
The main dining rooms were very good for dinner and breakfast lots of options. I wish there would have been a standard salmon and cheesecake option like we have seen on other ships.
The steakhouse and french restaurants included in our dining package served amazing meals from start to finish.
Onboard Activities
1 out of 5
I would call this the most boring cruise I have ever been on. I couldn't tell you what the cruise director looked like. There really was nothing to do on this ship besides sit around in areas. The pool was beyond freezing like 60 - no on could use it . This is unacceptable this day of age. The hot tubs were literally shoulder to shoulder packed because of this. There was a pitiful fitness center with old equipment.
Entertainment
1 out of 5
The entertainment was like C level - my dad kept asking if this was a training ship. There was nothing to do, and what was scheduled was pitiful. The entertainers need work and a new cruise director that actually well directs the entertainment of the ship is a must! We watched rerun movies and went to bed early. The piano bar was the only decent entertainment and it was in bursts of 45 min.
Children's Programs
1 out of 5
Advertised an entourage for my teen - didn't even run the program the week we were on the ship due to low volume, my teen was soooooo bored.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Service was quick and attentive.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
It is an older ship that has been updated, so it looks nice, but the layout is so poorly done. Floors don't connect and the purpose of some areas just doesn't make sense.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Decent cabin, clean, oversize porthole, efficient
Ship tip
If your are looking to drink and just sit or lay around this one works.
