The ship is elegant. Assuming we were told the truth - that the ship was at capacity, 1500 - we were amazed at the spaciousness. Very easy to get around. Never a crowd anywhere. Embarkation was quick and easy. Our cabin was more than ample with easily sufficient closet and drawer space for both of us. Bathroom was spacious with a full size bathtub. A fresh fruit bowl was refilled as we ate it.
Food was quite good, better at the Lido deck cafe buffet than in the dining room - and all day long. Weather forced cancellation of chosen land tours but not ship's fault.
Entertainment was mediocre and a disappointment but not a big thing with us. Biggest fault we had was with service which we blamed on HAL's policy of adding $10/day/pp for tips onto your bill. The rationale is that its for our "convenience" and so that we don't have to search out crew members to reward them at end of cruise. We got the distinct impression that the crew and especially those with whom we came in daily contact - cabin steward and dining room waiter - knew that their tip was in the bank as soon as we stepped on board so just did the minimum.
