No problems with embarkation and was shown to our cabin which was larger than expected and well decorated.
Bar staff were not good at all, having cruised 15 times on three different lines, Thomson, NCL and Royal Caribbean I have never before found such poor bar service. The bar staff were not interested, even though we sit at the bar itself rather than a table, once you had finished a drink they did not notice for a while and when they did they put a new drink down but did not take the empty glass away. Bar staff argued amongst themselves.
Food in buffet not great and we were served by the staff to prevent spread of infections. Food was only ever lukewarm. Laid out in a silly way - normally desserts etc are on separate serving areas, here everything in one so you had to go back to the start of the queue if you wanted a dessert.
Cabin 6174 - nicely situated mid ship. Cabin well decorated and one of the best showers on a Thomson ship we've had. Cabin steward was fantastic.
