Having been with HAL before we where very dissapointed with this cruise no music or dancing before dinner.In fact the ship was like a ghost ship most of the time except meal times when everybody appeard.First two nights dine as you wish took three hours from turning up to leaving, the service was poor, waiters surly,the food was only average.We ate most of the time in the lido the food there was not much better but you could pick and chose. The ship is old and worn needs an upgrade.No entertainment before 7.30 then only violin and piano.Sevice was poor all round we cancelled our gratuitys for the full cruise.Our room stewerd was very good and looked after us well,he got a good tip.Room sevice for breakfast (only twice) was always on time but the waiters miserable and the food cold.Shore excursion to expensive we did our own through Viator very good.Sorry HAl thats your lot from us.
