Have cruised with Thomson before (Baltic on Spirit) and found it to be excellent value for money. Ships may be a bit older but they are very comfortable and the cabins have all had plenty of room. Had an outside deluxe this time which included a full bath. Entertainment excellent. The Show Team superb. Staff were always friendly smiling and helpful. Good selection of food in both restaurants. Seemed to be adequate number of sunbeds. Free Laundry facilities were a bonus, especially on a 2 week cruise. We did 2 x 1 week back to back. There was a small pool, we did not use. Spa is expensive, used it on changeover day at a reduced price.Excursions were varied. Well organized and good value. There was no pressure to buy extras. As I do not drink alcohol I do not like the policy of each person in the cabin having to buy the drinks package, but would be worth it if I did. My sister purchased a wine package. Will definitely go on another Thomson cruise, most people,we met on the ship had been on 5 or more and loved the smaller ships and friendlier atmosphere. This was an adult only cruise. Service overall was excellent.
