This cruise was very disappointing. Freestyle cruising sounds great but there are so many food venues that not one of them is exceptional. Since both main dining restaurants are open at the same time for breakfast, lunch and dinner the only other option is the buffet or the Blue Lagoon. The Venetian is supposed to be the better of the 2 but the Aqua had a much friendlier & attentive staff. The Blue Lagoon, the 24 hour option is fine as long as you enjoy slow service and cold food. The buffet was plentiful the variety was good, but quality was horrible, with the exception of the fresh fruit, salad fixings and breakfast. We also ate at the pay for restaurants, La Cucina was disgusting! Teppanyaki was great the food was good and the chef was alot of fun!

The cabin never felt clean and there was pink mold/bacteria around the tub, dirt on all the door creases. I think we saw our room attendant once and only received the daily sheet 4 times out of 7.

Disembarkation was a total disaster, it took almost 2 hours of standing in line to get off the ship...don't do the "easy walk off" it was nothing less then absurd!

11610, midship family balcony. Nice location very near the elevators without a lot of noise. This cabin has a bath tub and should not be booked for someone with a handicap.
