This was our very first cruise so we have nothing to compare to
Embarkation was a bit chaotic,you were giving a number and had to wait till they called your number,had to put back time of boarding which was bit annoying.When you got your number called we went through really quickly on board in bout 15 mins Brillant.
Very impressed with the ship lots of bars to sit and be social but if you just wanted to be quiet there are plenty places to do that to.
Cabin was bigger than what we thought,very light,lots of storage which you need and plenty of hangers.Bed very big and comfy,bathroom was adequate.loo,basin and shower.
