This was me second cruise. The first one was on the Majesty of the sea. Upon entering the ship my first thought was this ship looks cheap. On the Majesty, even though it is an older ship than the Fascination, everything looked well cared for. The crew was always cleaning this and polishing that. On the Fascination I did not see this. The floors on the lido deck looked faded and worn in general the whole ship reminded me of a motel 6. The one thing that was nice was the cabin.

The food was terrible. Everything was fried in grease on a flat grill instead of being flamed grilled where the food is not cooking in grease. The quality of the meats and all the food in general was way below par. I would compare it to one of those free buffets in Las Vegas at a cheap hotel. The only entertainment that I enjoyed was the guy playing outside of the casino. The rest of the entertainment was terrible.

I have never been asked to take my picture so much. Every time you turn the corner there is one of their photographers wanting to take your picture. This ship is constantly trying to nickel and dime you to death. I never bought on picture from them.
