did not use specialty restaurants. buffet I felt did not have as much choice as other cruise lines we have uses. main dining room - main waiter Edgar always seemed in a rush and stressed very little interaction. Drink waiter Moises was very friendly. Afternoon tea was very nice all staff very friendly, attentive and well dressed

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Main waiter, Edgar, seemed very stressed and not a lot on interaction always appeared rushed. Drink waiter, Moises very friendly and interaction. Room steward, Mylton very friendly and room well serviced. Ghev, Purser's Office, did not have good customer service skill. No smiles and very abrupt.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

same size as other cruise lines. more hanging space and coat hangers than other cruise ship we have traveled on. Room always well cleaned by our room stewart.
