I was SO excited to book this cruise. My husband and I's first honeymoon was a disaster, so this was supposed to be a "make-up" honeymoon. This was almost worst than our first one. He had never been out of the country, so this was a big deal for him and I was so excited to travel with him, and this cruise quite literally embarrassed me!! I'm not even sure where to begin....

1. FOOD IS HORRIBLE - The worst meals I have ever had. Windjammer buffet was disgusting, always the same exact choices. We got food poisoning two nights in a row from this place, so we tried Chops Grill. EVEN WORSE. $80 for rubbery tasteless steaks and a terrible waitress. Our best meal on this ship was Johnny Rockets, and that's SAD. Even there, the drains were having issues so there was dirty water all over the floors. The main dining room's food was below average. The steak had zero flavor and was clearly soaked in pepper to try to add to the taste. Nasty. We couldn't wait to get home and have a decent meal that didn't make us sick.

2. BAR SERVICE SLOW - 50 people in line for drinks and 2 bartenders working??? Ridiculous. We prepaid for our drink packages that included tips and stopped getting drinks two days into our cruise due to the slow service. It's not even worth it because by the time you get your second drink, the even little bit of a buzz you would get would be worn off. Not to mention there were only 3 bars...with over 3800 people... doesn't add up.

ROOM WAS GROSS - We were extremely appalled with the room in general. The stench was overbearing (and we couldn't even figure out what the smell was), old, musty, nasty! The bed was virtually useless. Lawn chairs by the pool were more comfortable. My back ached every morning from sleeping on a rock. Our toilet never flushed. Had to call maintenance within the first hour. Water in the room tasted foul and old, and warm. Had to go all the way to a bar to get a bottled water because I couldn't stand to drink it. I will say that our steward was awesome. Very friendly and attentive. But even he couldn't help make this room worth the money.
