The itinerary and time of year. Very very old ship ! Cabin smelled upon entering eyes watered and sinuses hurt after 24 hours. It took a total of 3 days for them to look into the filter going into the cabin. It was almost black !! After a fresh one put in the cabin smelled so much better !! Come on holland America you know the ship is old change all the old filters please. A fellow passenger a few doors down had the same complaint filter was changed and found filthy as well !! Food was extremely mediocre! Shocked !! I was told that holland America food was suppose to be excellent, found out it is not good ! Entertainment was fair . Their was nothing to do during the day ! I know that holland America caters to older folks but my husband is 82 years old and he thought that there was not enough happening during the day and of course at night as well. I have no complaints at all with our cabins stewards they were wonderful ! Also our dining table waiter and assistant were great also ! All 4 of them were the highlight of our cruise ! also please holland America you guys can afford to put newer tv's in the cabins ! This was our first time on the holland America line and our last !
