Our experience was a great one. Even though the ship is older and the decor is more dated, it was clean and well kept. We went to the ship at about noon and were surprised that after our check in, we were able to board the ship and have lunch and by then our bags were to our rooms. We unpacked and walked to see Old San Juan and the old fort.
We tried most of the food options and found them to be ok. I loved the salad bar selections on the buffet for lunch. The breakfast buffet was good, also....many options. Loved to get fries later in the afternoon as we sat in the sun. We found that if we went upstairs (stairs by dessert bar) there weren't many people there and we could always sit together by a window.
All of the entertainment on the Lido deck (by the big screen) was too LOUD.
