Sail Date: Aug 2017

Wheelchair assistance was requested but only one person was giving assistance so after a VERY long wait I had to walk on board with assistance from my husband. ONE PERSON WAITED FOR OVER 2 HOURS.

The cabins are large and comfortable with a large TV on which only one channel ever worked. When asked about this reception explained that all the cabins have different channels, most of which were foreign or have no signal.

This is an old but rather lovely ship. The staff are friendly and polite but have no idea what is happening or even where things are on the ship. Many of the crew are very new and have difficulty with English.

Cabin Review

Cabin outside twin

Large comfortable well fitted cabin but bathroom facilities showing real signs of age, with stained sinks and toilets. TV never worked as they have no satelite reception. Cabin steward was excellent.
