This was such a terrible experience, I am done cruising. First, our room was dusty and dirty. Our bathroom smelled like a porta potty, it was awful!!! Dust flew around our room constantly and you could visibly see it everywhere. My entire family came home with congestion and stopped up noses, no doubt because of the dirty room.

The pools were freezing cold, the hot tubs were always completely full, and the slide was closed everyday due to "wind". On our port day, they opened the slide for 2 hours in the afternoon and then closed it (we were not moving and there was no wind) because they didn't have anyone to staff it. They closed the games on the top deck constantly because of the "wind".

There was nothing for my kids to do except Camp Ocean, but they wouldn't let us stay with them there. We actually wanted to be with our kids on vacation!

Dirty!!!! Our bathroom smelled like a porta potty and our room was so dusty!!! I asked our cabin attendant to dust the room since we all have bad allergies and it was never done.

Getting on the boat was a good experience. Easy and quick. It all went downhill after that!
