After reading the previous review I was skeptical of the condition of the ship. Our biggest problem was the fact that were subject to very high rate for internet. I understand it was only on our ship, the rate was $249.00 for the whole cruise or $60.00 for a 24 hour period. Highway robbery.
Embarkation: Got to the terminal from our hotel around 1 pm. Check in was smooth, no wait to board the ship. We were in our cabin by 1:30 pm.
A/C: some of the decks had some a/c issues. The lido problem previously described seemed to be caused by lack of doors to the outside deck which both exterior and interior close automatically. There was always at lease a 20 knot wind across the deck causing the warm air to blow in from the doors to the outside. The central section of the lido remained cool.
Cabin 5178. Has shower which is small but serviceable, had a very long vanity which made storing our essentials a snap. There are three closets, two have bars for hanging clothes. Other closet has shelves and houses the safe. A small night stand with 2 small drawers on either side of the bed. Two large drawers, one under each side of the bed gave plenty of storage. Beds were high enough to store suitcases under.
