I admit I haven’t cruised on this ship, but how can you say it looks cheap? On the videos I’ve seen it looks so beautiful.

Have to agree with you on the shopping, I found it to ritzy and lack of a general souvenir shop. Food was nice but no variety between the four main dining areas. As for the local customers being rude, I didn’t find that at all when cruised on Ovation back in March. And I’d actually think your review would hold water if you actually had previous cruises listed. Otherwise your review feels like a lot of them these days and that’s someone just being a miserable old whinger who thinks the world owes them something.

Local customers? I find it hard to believe that the Ovation would feel "cheap". Going on her in November so I'll find out myself i guess.
