Sail Date: Apr 2016
Cabin: Inside Stateroom

Cruised from 4/10-4/17. Made our selection based upon the "freestyle" option. We probably will not take a traditional cruise again. Loved not being locked in to a dining time or table with people we didn't know. Loved having the freedom to stay in casual clothes.

The ship was large and at time the public areas were crowded. This was noted from the start with a crowded embarkation terminal area. We stayed in a lower level inside cabin which was larger than expected. We had concerns that there would not be enough storage, but there was plenty. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom amenities were fine. I did bring extra hair conditioner which I needed to use since the 2-in-1 product just wasn't enough. For the amount of time spent in the cabin, an inside cabin suited our needs just fine. Complimentary dining options were okay. I was not overly impressed with the food. There was nothing exceptional. If you are looking for gourmet, a specialty restaurant might be a better option. There were plenty of entertainment options. Burn the Floor was excellent. Rock of Ages was good. We enjoyed the vast array of music selections throughout the ship. I do recommend purchasing the Thermal Spa for the week. We had a few days of high winds and rocky waters which caused the outdoor pool experience to be "not so fun". The spa was wonderful. The fitness center was adequate. Overall, the trip was well worth the money spent for the services received.

Larger than expected. Suitable for two people. Would have been too crowded for 3.
