Embarkation went smooth. Upon arriving at our Cabin 10050 we discovered someone elses luggage. The steward told us to go to the front desk. After waiting in line 30 minutes they told us to go back to our cabin and someone would meet us there. After wasting another 20 minutes it turned out that someone had mistook their room number while the steward was cleaning and had left their luggage.

For the most part the Crew was great. Food was mostly pretty good. We learned that if dinner was bad at the restaurant that O'shehans had good Burgers and desserts. The breakfast buffett seemed to be the same every day. There was not nearly enough seating and your food could be cold by the time you found a seat. We found out that you could eat in the Italian restraunt where their was plenty of seating and quiet. For the first 2 days the entertainment that we like (comedians,magic) was lacking. It got better further into the cruise but did not compare to other cruises we have been on. There were only 4 Hot tubs that were around the main pool. It appears there were more Hot tubs that only the Suite rooms had access too.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Balcony

Cabin BA

Room was nice but small. Rooms being small was a commonly heard complaint. The glass on the balcony was too dirty to look through. I tried to clean it but didn't have much luck. The TV remote didn't work. The room steward gave us another one that worked sporadically. The TV was only about 20 inches. They should replace the big picture in front of the bed with a decent TV. The speaker in the room didn't work and we had to go into the hallway to hear announcements.
