I went into this vacation with my expectations low as to not get disappointed after the countless so-so reviews. I was ready for just ok food and small accommodations but even my low expectations weren't met.
I have previously sailed two times before, once on the Carnival Pride and the MSC Divina. I don't think of myself or my partner as super picky, we are just average Joe's and it really doesen't take much to impress us usually.
Embarkation went very smoothly, walked into the terminal and was on the ship within 45 minutes. My first impressions of the ship were that it was a bit smaller than the previous ones i've been on. I found the layout to be extremely confusing, even after the 6th day I still found myself getting lost.
