Ship Quality

5 out of 5

All good except for midship where stairs lead to no where.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Layout was not the greatest when the bunks are out. We have been on other cruises with a better layout where having the bunks out, did not have a significant impact on ability to move around in the room. Also, initially our stateroom attendant would not combine the twin beds.
