Review summary
The entertainment far exceeded my expectations! There were some real class acts and top notch entertainment acts, knowledgeable lecturers, varied decent musicians, especially since ship is dated and could use some updating. The majority of staff were phenomenal, courteous, kind, happy, energetic, and always willing to go the extra mile. Accommadations while sufficient, lacked luxury and refinement, overal decor felt very dated.--borderline tacky. The food was hit and miss. Fortunately there were a variety of dining options; some inclusive of stay and others at a premium upcharge.
