Review summary
The cabin (for a balcony room) seemed smaller and more crowded than on other ships. The shower was TINY (and we are average-size people). Elevators were very slow and one in our group was handicapped, so had to move from floor to floor by elevator. Food was average except a la carte breakfast in the dining room was excellent. Buffet was always too crowded except on port days, and we prefer buffets where the staff handles the serving spoons as viruses are spread quickly by touch. There were tons of things for children to do -- we wished our kids/grandkids were with us! We love trivia, and this ship had more opportunities than most, which was great. The Guest Relations staff was EXCELLENT. Our room steward was EXCELLENT. Our waiters in the dining room were EXCELLENT. Our cabin was very warm -- we asked the room steward to try and get it cooled down, and it did cool a bit, but we still woke up in the middle of the night hot. Uncomfortable and made for restless nights. The shows were EXCELLENT, especially Hairspray and the Headliner show -- Mosaic. The walking/jogging track on the Promenade Deck was EXCELLENT.Ship experiences
