We booked this cruise because it leaves out of Baltimore and that is a much shorter drive for us than Florida. My husband hates to fly. We did the same itinerary a few years ago on the Granduer and we really had a great time. Maybe our expectations were to high.

Our stateroom attendant was wonderful. Can't say enough about how good she was. We had a balcony stateroom that was very nice with plenty of room for storage. Missed having the menu on the TV to check charges on sea pass.

Dinner in the dining room was not so great. I didn't think the food was up to the usual standards. We did not get very good service. The waiter tried hard but his assistant was not on the ball so he had to keep going behind her and doing her job as well as his. You would think by the end of the nine days she would remember what people were drinking, but this was not the case. We were always the last to leave our section because our food was so late. We had early seating and it usually took at least 45 minutes to get our appetizer. No little extras at the table no card tricks or any of the little things that entertain. That being said I wonder how much of this was due to a very demanding couple at our table that were very high maintenance. Had breakfast and lunch at Windjammer. Windjammer was pretty good. Not really sure what else they could put on breakfast bar, it had everything. Lunch was also pretty good. Read more
