Always clean thanks to staff. Great storage space, comfy beds size fine, enjoyed the balcony.

Ship tip

See as much entertainment as you can. Book al a carte restaurant early if you wish to go it’s very popular. If have a balcony lock door at night and jam a piece of paper on room door (they rattle with movement of ship)

Yes surf and turf you pay approx£25 per person so it should be good ! I thought the buffet was poor quality food ! They were clearing away at 8.30 pm but you live and learn 😎
