Review summary

Enjoyable experience overall. Saw some new places. Made some new friends. Good room. Internet felt slow (but apparently much faster than normal cruise). Fantastic service.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Very smooth and quick (in a past cruise, it took us around 4 hours to board, here, it took us, what 10 mins).

Ship experiences

Room and (surprisingly) bathroom well laid out.

Ship tip

Being drinking water with you if you are not going to get a drinks package. There is a charge for room service (even for water). And they didn't leave any complementary water bottles in the room (as most hotels do).
