This interior room was definitely outdated, unpleasant décor. Steward was above average. Food was mediocre, buffet was understaffed and inadequate for the number of passengers trying to access it. Dining room staff was very good and the food was somewhat better there.

Lots of rusty, tired areas. Rope lights in the atrium have many burned out bulbs. Lido deck drink waiters were unfriendly and definitely did not like it if you ordered a soft drink with one of the prepaid soft drink stickers on your cabin card.

Elevators were not always working as well as one of the atrium lifts out of order for most of the cruise. Many PA speakers were scratchy and impossible to understand announcements if you were near one. I had paint dripped on me while sitting outside on the deck, looked up to discover a worker painting around the life boat overhead.
