Teh destinations looked good and the price reasonable. What I didnt expect was such an old ship- painted over rust, damaged UV film on very dirty windows, varnish worn off furniture.

The main dining room food was bad boarding house standard, compared to Princess Line, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian. No steak offered ever...except as a sort of stew.

If you wanted a beautiful steak. you paid $100 per couple for the "Salt Grill" which was advertised as "Crowded, popular, so book early". Not surprisingly, the the surcharge, it was rarely a quarter full.

Cabin Review

Cabin No idea

Well positioned amidships convenient to the elevators. Small but adequate. Beautiful large square widow unfortunately very dirty. Good cabin staff. No cosmetics or bar fridge content. No under bed space for luggage. Plenty of drawer and hanging space.
