Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Freestyle dining should be called "hurry up and waitstyle dining". On 3 out of 7 nights we had to wait 20+ minutes to be seated. Food quality was good. Specialty dining had a $10 per person upcharge.

Entertainment

1 out of 5

Not enough to do on this ship.

Service and Staff

Nobody went above and beyond. Dining service was mostly good, front desk bordered on rude.

Average cabin.One day we had to wait until 5pm for room to be made up in spite of 3 calls for service.
