Sail Date: Jun 2011

I went on this cruise on the 12th June 2011 with my mum and would like to say it was a lovely ship, very clean and stylish and we was upgraded from an inside cabin to a room with a balcony which was nice.

The problem came with the surcharge that they charge on top for drinks which was 15% so what you saw was not the price you paid so we got a kids package which was about 23euros which worked out cheaper than buying them individually and you get 10 smoothies, ice cream, milk shake or juice and only paid 2 surcharges and didn't buy any alcohol as it was to expensive.

Also they don't supply tea or coffee with the sit down meal, we ate after 3 days up in the buffet area as you get tea/coffee free but we found the waiter services in the sit down restaurant not very good as we had a waiter who didn't speak very good English and was slow and we found that if you have other people on your table and they order more than 1 starter than you have to wait for them to finish before you get your main course which we thought was wrong plus the food wasn't that good, even the gala meal was awful - we had veal but it was fatty and on a square bit of hard bread with 2 sun dried tomato's, you didn't get veg with your meal, so it was easier to go and eat at the buffet as you can get what you want and more choice.

Cabin Review

cabin was nice, small balcony with a table and chairs. We had a twin room, with a sofa which was a sofa bed but if you did have another person staying with you it would be abit squashed in the room, plenty of storage space and the room had a safe that you lock and open with your own code. Towels and bath robes were supplied, mini bar which we we didn't touch but used the fridge to keep our own drinks cold. Bathroom with a shower that had a dispenser with shampoo and body wash and the sink also had a pump with hand soap in it. Beds were comfy and rooms were cleaned twice a day but as we were at the end its a long walk from some of the elevators or stairs and you can easily get lost.
