As I read the cruise reviews from recent passengers, I can't help but wonder what would make anyone have so much negativity about this beautiful "Jewel" or her polished and very clean and gorgeous interior/exterior. We have sailed on all the different class ships and this one has it! Never had to wait in line for any dining options, never felt crowded, always room at the casino, elevator service was great, etc.
If you are looking for gourmet dining, then I truly believe cruising, (at least on these ships) are not for you....we own a restaurant and the quality of the food on board was good...
If you are traveling with children - the available dining options are spot on...Our 11 year old daughter must have eaten at least 5 meals a day....plus snacks....what a fortune we saved in dining costs...(she is 4'10" and 70 pounds)
Cabin was spacious - plenty of storage space...bathroom was large....deck was wonderful - no rooms across from us...only negative was when the Windjammer closed at night there was some noise from tables and chairs being moved around....
