Review summary

Everybody else already pointed out all the great things, so let me give a run down on what my negative points are. I find it to be too relaxing (but suitable for this type of cruise); from the overall atmosphere and onboard activities. Some of a activities that I find unnecessary and utterly boring were How to use Windows 10 and How to use Digital Camera Workshop. I get so bored that I couldn't wait to get out in town when we're at port. Bars and venues generally lack of energy and hard to sit there for long. A lot of under-utilized areas on this ship as well, which I could see these dead areas turn into something like a small eatery to help breaking up the crowd at the buffet area. I also had issue with water pressure and how quiet it could be during an evening. While theatre productions were excellent, the comedies and other shows were just okay that I wouldn't feel regret if I couldn't make it. Again, everybody else already pointed out all the good things about this ship. I didn't hate this. It's my first HAL cruise and it's exactly how I thought it would be. Will I cruise with HAL again? Maybe. But for the time being, I'm going back to Celebrity and Norwegian for something more lively.
