Came with great expectations - none were met. The food was shameful - no way there was a chef in the galley, a home cook could put more flavour and could cook more authentic ethnic food than what we received. The Indonesian bar and cabin crew were amazing! The European crew were rude, lazy and just didn't care about the passengers concerns. Their infection control was non existent leading to a respiratory virus do the rounds up to three times, the only way to get better was to get off the boat. I felt sorry for Gallipoli cruises who were the meat in the sandwich. They chartered the ship feeling that if there were concerns from the passengers, MSC would address those. That most definately did not happen. What should have been an amazing holiday was marred by these memories of MSC.

My recommendation to anyone looking at cruising - NEVER cruise with MSC!

Cabin Review

Cabin 11

Cabin was good though curtains had holes in them and the bed quilt was perishing. The pillows were terrible leading to a large amount of passengers buying pillows at the first shore excursion. SHAME MSC!
