This was supposed to be a beautiful begining to our life together. Yes it was a short three day on an older ship, but family circumstances and children with medical conditions do not give us much time away. The highlight to this cruise was the ability to have us debark and on the road out of port in 15 minutes flat.

We did have the Faster to the Fun program which made embark easy, quick and enjoyable. Loved having the room available so quickly. We proceeded to the Lido for the customary buffet and lounge by the pool. The ship is laid out horribly and difficult to pass from one end of ship to the other. The bathrooms appeared few and far between. Almost none of the hand sanitize stations were operational and no one even bothered attempting to use them!!!!! There was a lack of concern from the staff and it appeared to bother them when you reported these issued.

The buffet itself was poorly laid out and selection of food was mediocre at best. There were many occasions in mid afternoon that the only food to be found were ice chips. Dining room staff were very polite and courteous.  There was a complete disregard for seating times...we had early dining at six and most of our table mates would wander in about 645-7. Which honestly was a benefit. One gentleman felt the dining room was an appropriate place to have his hands down his girlfriends pants in a very obvious show of sexual activity.

Cabin 6B

Poor air conditioning. Smelled of cigarette smoke, stains covering floor, and TV blinked constantly.
