We chose this cruise for my 60th birthday celebration, big mistake!

The check in involved long waits which we have never previously experienced with any other cruise line but that was just the precursor to disaster. The room was acceptable but the shower area on this ship seemed smaller than any I have experienced but that could just be subjective.
