Traveled with children

Travelled with husband and two young children. Great and easy embarkation (quick and luggage to room in early afternoon) and disembarkation (walked off with our luggage!). Like many have said, it's an older ship - but it was our 4th cruise (one with Disney, two with RCI) and we enjoyed it. Loved our mini-suite (11 deck) - we were under the carpeted area of the buffet - and most of the time did not hear any noise. Close to buffet, pool and kids club.

Enjoyed the buffet - the pub was pretty good (but slow service). Best dinner ever on a cruise (two times!) - Cagney's. Worth it. Did not enjoy the meal at La Cucina - I say skip it. Teppanyaki was fun and entertaining and good food. Found drinks expensive.

The tribute band, and the nights with the professional performances (cirque) were fantastic - and not too long (for us with kids).

Great location - would recommend highly - not noisy (with exception of one night, a child jumping off the seats in the café!).

Nice size for us four - two smaller kids shared sofabed and they loved it (recommend asking for topper the first night).
