Review summary
The ports were great, even in the rain. The ship was not. The food was never hot, I even sent it back a couple times. The buffet is not self serve, so you have to wait in line for your food. No self laundry!!! You can pay for a bag for $20. Internet to check email is very slow and expensive $25 a day. Shower did not work properly for a couple days (all hot or all cold).Embarkation
