Review summary

The staffs' genuine friendless creates a memorable cruise. Embarkation and disembarkation moved like clockwork.  Overall the cruise was a good value for the money.  The Adagio classical music performances were impressive and well planned. Bravo!  Alas, the food was less than memorable and the serving size required a magnifying glass to find it.  Thank goodness for the ice cream station.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
The stateroom needed refurbishing. The torn carpet, ripped wall paper and small size of the balcony room looked worse for the wear. I ordered flowers, which helped to refocus the room on something nice.

Ship tip

Make friends with the staff-- and hug them goodbye.
