Sail Date: Jan 2014
Cabin: Large Ocean-View Stateroom

This was my first cruise with HAL and as the 11th time I have cruised there were some areas that disappointed me.

1. was the lack of supervision of sanatizing hands prior to entering a restaurant. Whilst there were bottles of the liquid there, noone was superevising to see if people used the solution. I was shocked to see people leave the washrooms and not sanatize hands before entering the dining areas. Other cruise lines have rigid rules regarding this.

2. Standard of dress. On formal nights when men were dressed in dinner jackets, suits etc. some individuals were allowed into the dining room in Tshirts. To me this was an insult to those men who had flown to our embarking port carrying the appropriate attire.

Large Ocean-View Stateroom

Cabin C

Outside cabin - lower Promenade deck.Good size. adequate wardrobe space. Bathroom needed a little work. Plenty of hot water. Good supply towels. Cabin kept clean and tidy.Missed the electric jug/kettle offered on other lines.
