I read horrible comments about embarkation & disembarkation. We did not have the faster to fun pass and have no complaint about the process. We arrived earlier then our check in time of 2-2:30. We arrived at 1 and were on the ship with drink in hand by 2pm! We dropped off our luggage in our room and went exploring like everyone else. Miami skyline is beautiful. My husband and I bought a cocktail and found a nice area at the back of the ship to watch all the activity below. Nice and relaxing.

The ship is a little outdated as everyone has pointed out but it was clean and I did not smell anything bad as others have also commented. Its what you make of it. Hope you like purple.

We opted for the anytime dining and never had an issue being sat immediately. The wait staff were all excellent and the food in the dining room was pretty good. I am missing the melting chocolate cake desert now. Our room steward was nice and did an excellent job keeping our room in order and making cute towel animals for us each night. Our bed was comfortable. We had an inside cabin, it was very dark. We actually slept "late" many mornings which was nice.

Cabin 4B

Our cabin was small, which is typical for an inside lowest floor cabin, but perfect for two people. I can not imagine any more people being squeezed in there. Our room did have two murphy beds folded up. Our steward was excellent.
