Review summary

Great ship, food outstanding on ship, crew are so friendly its amazing. Maintenance of Elevators and cabin such as drapes and shower door disappointing. Mandatory $16 per person per day gratuity whether you use services is inappropriate and paying $16 per day per person for Soda is not appropriate either.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Staff attitudes and skill exceeds many 4 and 5 star hotels.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
Too many elevators out of service causes lengthy waits to move from deck to deck.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Shower door wont remain in place at rough seas banging continually and too many window drape hooks broken allowing light into cabin

Ship tip

Dont be surprised you have to pay $16 per day for Coke/Soda and $16 per day per person for mandatory gratuities whether you on ship or not.

Salmon bake is a beautiful location, great staff but Sockeye Salmon is full of bones and over cooked. Bus is ok but you ride on school buses... hmmm

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Not sure why some get to disembark on front of ship and all others CRAMMED into back mid ship area. Use to exits so we are not crammed into one area to leave ship
