Totally satisfied with the cruise. The 3 of us were really pleased as everything went so smoothly. The ship is a very nice size, and our cabin, although on the small size, was so cozy and with the amenities one needs during the entire cruise. The meals were all delicious, the a la carte menus catered to every taste and need. We never got bored with the food, as there was a special treat waiting for us every time we sat to eat. I even found out there is such a thing as non-alcoholic wine and sparkling wine while on board. The drinks were poured freely and the their quality was outstanding. The crew was a plus - soooo nice and attentive to every one's needs. Congratulations on that! The excursions were very interesting and comprehensive. Yes, I would go again, and actually I am already in the process of booking a Danube river cruise with Avalon for next year, this time with our other son. I wish I could take all my family and relatives along, but unfortunately I don't own a bank!
Our cabins were on the middle level with wall-to-floor windows and no balcony. Maybe next time I will chose a bigger room, as the ones we took were on the small side, but then, on a ship one cannot expect huge rooms, right? But I guess there are bigger rooms on the level above from ours.
