Travelled with friends up to Alaska, great way to see several ports in a short time, which is why we like cruising.

We were very lucky to have sunny weather the whole time, truly amazing. The Captain did a fantastic job manuevering the ship, we always were on time and had super smooth sailings.

The food in the dining rooms was probably our first let down. With all the variety of restaurants on board, the main dining rooms do not have a large variety to pick from every night. One whole sheet of the menu is "classics" with 3 or 4 appetizers, 3 or 4 main entrees such as baked chicken, then a few desserts. The "unique" menu for the night had maybe 3 items such as meatloaf and poached salmon. Meatloaf? What's so special about that? The service was hit and miss also. One night we were given the wrong meals (there were 5 of us) and another night we watched as they tried to give our meals to another table. Yikes! Anyways, the same food every day was boring.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Inside

We were on deck 4, super quiet. Didn't even hear people walking by. Great closet space, plus shelves for storing other items. Bathroom had a shower door, very nice. Bed was very comfortable. One table was a little too big at the corner making it difficult to get around. Fridge either needs to be bigger or have less items in it for purchase, you can't fit anything else in it.
