Our cruise earlier this month was close to perfect.
We found the staff to be delightful and we were always greeted with courtesy and treated with as valued passengers. No, I was not referred to as Madame, however, I found the familiar greetings & mild chitchat charming.
Our overall dining experiences were fabulous and the cleanliness of eating areas, serve ware, etc. were exceptional. I attended the dining introductions on the first day which helped us better understand our dining choices and dress codes. We started many dinners with fabulous À la carte pre-dinner sushi.
It was too cold to enjoy warm evenings on a balcony, and since there were no sea days I was quite happy with the location and layout of room 7120.
