It was good but ship seemed understaffed. Our butler had too many suites to take care of and they were on 2 decks. He was overwhelmed

The Butler was an unfunny joke! Service slow and way understaffed. Everything seemed crowded. Weird food ordering and seating scheme. Food was blah to meh at best. Entertainment was poor. Good ship, bad hotel management, bad cruise director, bad chefs, bad food and bev service. Overbooked and understaffed. Celebrity is twice the cruise at half the price.

Just wondering why you wouldn’t go on Vista again? Just because of the Main Lounge?
