Let me begin by saying that this was a very enjoyable cruise. I will talk about the good and the bad. We went on it for the ports, not for the food or pool and this cruise delivers on the Ports. How else do you get to Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Russia, Finland and Sweden in less than two weeks. Amazing!!
We are experienced cruisers and have cruised on high-end (Regent, Crystal) and more moderate cruise lines (Carnival, Royal Carribian). This time we splurged and got a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom family suite. We traveled with our two teenaged kids, so it was nice to have the suite.
We began in Copenhagen and stayed in the Best Western on the front-end and two days at the Marriott at the end of the cruise. Best Western was in a great location, good breakfast, clean, although the rooms were very small. Marriott is beautiful and the rooms are spacious, fantastic breakfast, but the location is not at good as the Best Western. I would recommend either of them.
