On the whole, my cruise was a wonderful experience thanks mainly to a wonderful group of friends with whom I traveled, and the gorgeous stops on the Freedom's itinerary.
The ship itself, and the way things are handled on it, leave quite a bit to be desired, from the hideous decor to the organization.
The decor is atrocious and it wasn't just me who thought so. Ugly, gaudy, tacky ... my best friend said of the ship's decor: It looks like Salvador Dali threw up right into the path of a wind tunnel that sprayed the walls. Even the staff talked about how horribly ugly the ship is.
