Sail Date: Nov 2015
Cabin: Mid-ship Balcony Stateroom

There were too many people on this ship and inadequate facilities to support the number of people.

There was not a bank of mid-ship elevators which resulted in lengthy walks and long waits at peak times. Sometimes the elevators would skip right past a deck. When the elevators finally stopped they were often over crowded due to strollers.

The number of small kids and infants was overwhelming. It was hard to escape (pun intended)the crying babies. Perhaps the ship should be named "Day Care of The Sea" or something that would give cruisers an idea of what to expect. It was shocking that crying babies were allowed to remain in the specialty restaurants and in the shows. If the parents didn't know to take them out the staff should have asked them to leave instead of allowing them to disturb other guests.

Cabin Review

Mid-ship Balcony Stateroom

Shower was bigger than I expected. Cabin and balcony were as expected. The television is in set back area such that it can't be viewed by one guest.
