Most of the ports you dock in the container shipping port, so what you see is not very picturesque.
Excursions are expensive.

Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Main dining room was chaotic at times, appeared to be understaffed with the "anytime" dining. Ate dinner the last two days at the buffet. The dining at the specialty restaurants is not worth the extra money spent, only went because it was included in the cost.

Entertainment
3 out of 5
Individual singer was good, never did get to see the comedian. Service was low in the dining room so you missed most of the show.
Children's Programs
No children on the cruise
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Waiters not up to standards, other areas were fine. Did notice a large number of dining room officers visible during dining times.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
cabin 4020 had been flooded with the carpeting wet when we arrived. Went to customer service originally with no change or help. Returned again to a different CS agent who contacted Arivn, who made the proper decision to move our room to 9102. Better room, should not have taken the time and work to get this change taken care of.
Ship tip
May want to skip dining in the dining room, service is substandard, eat the buffet instead.
Good port to rent a car. Drove through volcano's national park and Akaka Fall. Much cheaper than taking an excursion. Pick you up and return you to the dock.
