Having read other reviews we were a little uncertain of what to expect - luxury ship or holiday camp on sea ? Little had prepared us for our first sight of the ship which was absolutely enormous.
Parking and check in were simple and easy despite a short delay as the system was down and we were on board within an hour of arriving at the terminal, others however did speak of some delays later on.
Once on-board we could have lunch and although the restaurant was a little crowded at that time we were easily seated and finished by 2.00pm. Rooms were available from mid afternoon and we spent a pleasant few hours exploring prior to sailing.
Spotlessly clean, comfortable. Nice balcony, really comfy bed & excellent shower. Not too much space to put cases though. Good TV listing.
