It was a fund raiser. They advertise "Feel style" but one specialty restaurant, Le Bistero (the only one) chooses to require long pants for the men...however NO where is it printed that they are necessary and you don't find out until you arrive for your reservation and then there is a 10X12 sign. Main dining room food was bland and service left much to be desired. Room service is confusing, there is a charge, and not one order was delivered complete or correct. Never had completely dry towels, and room (mini suite) did not have a single drawer for clothes! It also had a tub that required one to step up and over, you had to grab the rails to get into it to take a shower. Toilet was separate, on the other side of entrance to room, and the sink was in the room...all separate.

Ship is extremely large and ONLY has two banks of elevators, one fore and one aft. Therefore you walk a LOT. We were traveling with elderly people so walking great distances was difficult...and everything was a walk. Shore excursions were expensive and not that varied.

When you had staff that were good they were really GOOD, but too many were just not that good at their jobs.
