The cruise was a wonderful experience. I did not get into it at first because I tend to be a wide open spaces kind of traveler and being crammed into all these tight hallways, stairways, and rooms was a bit to get past at first, but I did begin to enjoy it after the first day!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation in Galveston was very easy!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
I highly recommend upgrading to one of the dining packages. The food in the main dining halls was like Golden Corral or Luby's. The specialty restaurants were fantastic and well worth the extra expense.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The "adult only" pool area was terrible. It was indoor and hot and stuffy, no music playing...it was just lame...and kids kept trying to come in.
The main pool and hot tubs were very nice and fun!
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Comedian and magician were good!
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Waiters and room stewards were wonderful. The bartenders were always a little grumpy.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Cabin was fine. We did get bumped down though so don't trust them when they say your stateroom is "guaranteed"
Here is the irony of a private company versus the Government.... The Ship is able to get 2500 people off the ship with ease and very fast, the customs entry on the other hand was like a zoo with maybe 3 lines open!
