Before I get started we went on this cruise to relax not for the itinerary. We arrived at the terminal at 12:30. We paid cash for parking ($105) because there was a long line of cars waiting to pay by credit card. We had FTTF so embarkation went well, did not have to wait in any long lines. Boarding started at12:50 and we were in our room at 1:00. Had a great lunch and caught up with our waiter from our October Pride cruise.

We were in stateroom 4187. The stateroom is a standard balcony and we felt it was a great location, a short walk to the MDR and the main decks. When you walk into the room the bathroom is on the left, closets on the right. The couch and the bed's headboard were on the left wall toward the bow of the ship. The room did not have a flat screen TV. Overall the room was in good shape and very clean. Because of the location our stateroom of the two adjacent staterooms, one stateroom only partially shares the sidewalls which helps reduce the possibility of noise. So we did not have any sound problems from the staterooms next door.

The ship as a whole is very clean but there are some signs of wear, but nothing major. But the 2.0 upgrades will be welcomed. I know others have problems with the art work but it is not a problem for us. Read more
