The food was so bad on that cruise, I can barely describe how bad it was. They advertise that they have so many different complimentary restaurants, and that is true, but almost all of them all serve the exact same, very limited choice menu, and on that limited choice menu only like 1 or 2 of the items change daily, so there is very little choice of what to eat. The pub was the same the menu never changed and there were only like 4 choices of main dishes, many of which were on the buffet every day (hamburger, fried fish)

The buffet was the same the buffet area was huge but most of the time they only had half of it with food, and they repeated the same 4-5 choices like 4 different times. The salad bar area only had like lettuce and like 4 things corn, radish, carrots and that is it. There were almost no just steamed veggies, maybe like 2 times. The Asian section repeated the choice about every other day. And the food was either extremely dried out or very runny. Their soft serve ice cream machines were never at full capacity so they were constantly running out, refilling the machine and you never knew when you pulled the lever if you were going to get anything, or a runny mess as it wasn’t ready yet.

The quality of the entertainment also left a lot to be desired, you had to make reservations for the shows and some days there were then no shows for you as in order to get everyone to the show they offered them 2 days of the 8 day cruise. Many of the singers were off key and not that professional.

Cabin M1

This was the only good thing about this cruise, the stateroom was well laid out with plenty of storage. But the bed was extremly lumpy, and the TV choice was terrible with shows/movies that repeated over and over
