I've read some harsh review of the MSC Poesia, and while this wasn't my favorite cruise, it certainly wasn't the worst.
First up, embarkation was a breeze. We were on the ship in no time and got keys to our room immediately. The ship doesn't leave port until 7pm, but we arrived at the terminal around 1pm and had a leisurely afternoon and lunch on board.
The ship is beautiful and very clean. We saw people polishing the stairs and railings constantly. Not all of the elevator banks go up to pool level, deck 13.
Nice sized room on deck 12. Great closet and drawer space. Balcony was decent with a table and two chairs. Plenty of storage space in bathroom, too. Empty suitcases fit nicely under the bed.
