Review summary

Smaller ship, catering to the elderly, although I'm not old, I appreciated the care given to them. Nice library on the ship, was used by a lot of people. I wish there was no smoking in the casino, I couldn't stay in there fore more than 3 or 4 minutes. Had a wonderful time, and would sail with them again.

The dining room was of course better than the lido deck, but overall it was very good. I certainly didn't lack for food.
