I hate long drawn out reviews so I'll simply provide our good and bad about the ship. The itinerary and weather, IMHO are not relevant to a review of a cruise.
Like the size of ship but a little long in the teeth, the conversion not withstanding, e.g. Our shower stall was corroded and moldy, sheets and blankets were dirty. Steward promptly replaced them but couldn't do anything about the shower. Cabin was certainly smaller than the S class. We split the bed into two parts. Don't remember each unit being that small. Plenty of storage.
Service and friendliness of all crew members were outstanding. Captain had a terrific sense of humor, put on a skit with the CD and gave two outstanding lectures something we rarely see.
Cabin small than comparable category on an S class. Kept clean by a very nice steward. Good storage, good hot water. Should not have spent the dollars for a balcony as we never used it due to the weather. Quiet neighbors. Love X's smoking policy. Being that far forward we had long walks to get to some area of the ship but were nearer to others. Good exercise
