Review summary

Was disappointed that the fall foliage was so minimal, but of course that is not the ships fault. Overall I thought the quality of the in room dining and choice options has gone down significantly. The dining room itself was fine. Overall decent entertainment and liked timing of yoga classes.

Didn’t like that there was no way across the seventh floor, many activities from front to back and cumbersome. The stage on floor 8 seating was not comfortable
