Firstly I need to admit one thing. We only paid 199 each for a balcony cabin having come upon a real bargain five night cruise on the Internet, sailing from Barcelona, so I shouldn't really grumble about the less positive aspects of the cruise.
We joined the cruise in Barcelona, stopping at Tunis, Valletta, Messina and Rome before heading back to the start port of Genoa.
The ship is great - well designed and it has that touch of Italian class you would expect. Likewise the rooms are well laid out. The ship and rooms are kept immaculately clean, almost to the point of obsession, but overall we have nothing negative to say about the ship.
