Additional details

Sail Date: Nov 2013

We were on this ship 5 years ago and the crew were wonderful as always. She's an older ship (built in 2000) but that did not detract from having a great time. She has corrosion around fixtures, dirty and worn rugs and falling apart furniture. She needs dry dock, no doubt. Our room heater was not working when we boarded. After several calls and attempts to repair, it was eventually replaced with a new heater.

We like to walk at least 3 miles each day. Unfortunately, the outside promenade deck was always being blocked off for cleaning, so we could not use it for our walks. The jogging/walking track around the pool area is too narrow and crowded.

The buffet was crazy busy at times. Tables were hard to find and at there were repeated announcements over the PA asking to eat and leave so incoming diners have a table to sit at.
