OK. i chose this cruise because I am single and I got the same room with no single supplement for 34 days straight. Also because I had decided to visit South America for the first time. I enjoyed exploring Buenos Aires for 4 days before boarding. The embarkation process was neither too long or as short as some I've had before. They "process" guest in the 4 Seasons, which is one of the two (free) main dining rooms. My suitcase showed up outside my room when they said it would but it had a little scar on it.

My inside room (7311) was in the front of the ship. It was the smallest on the ship but plenty for one person. The shower was a narrow cylinder that would not accommodate "large" people. The room sometimes had a slightly musty smell like pillows that had dirty hair smell.

This ship's layout was a little different from most I sailed on. Usually the main theater is in the front of the ship and the restaurants are in the aft. Not so here; all in the aft. This meant that I had to walk a lot which I don't mind, but usually through the casino where smoking is allowed (cough, cough). Those with aft cabins had everything in their area: buffet on 11, main dining room on 5, theater on 6 and 7, and specialty restaurants and some bars on 12. On my end of the ship I could easily access the workout gym and salon, spa area as well as the atrium and guest services area.
