Sail Date: Dec 2016
Cabin: Balcony

This is a poorly designed ship! Signage to the hidden elevators is very poor, bordering on being a safety hazard! Only a forward and aft egress for a ship this large is ludicrous, some elevators were locked or not in service. The promenade and other public areas were more like separate hallways. Directions through the electronic display confusing: take forward elevator walk aft on right, finally figured out the directions. Only one level for each main restaurant, long wait times for meals, 30 to 60 minutes to get a seating? Too much space for shops: could have used the space for main restaurants. Smaller ships have a bigger buffet! Reservation for theater not sure if good or bad since seating for dinner is unknown. The sink wasn’t included in the ‘privacy’ area. The beds were atrocious; I would find my feet hanging off the end, the beds could not be separated. Traveling between closet and bed necessitated a turn sideways to get to the balcony.
