Sure the ship is old despite a recent refurbishment, but for the most part the cruise was awesome.
Our cabin (2 adults and 2 kids on bunks) was cramped and dated - but who is going to spend more than 8 hrs locked in a cabin apart from sick and anti-social types?
The free food at The Pantry was more than adequate - about the same standard as a Westfield food court. Lunch on some days had fantastic roast lamb and veggies - as good as you'll get at an Australian pub.
Cramped and outdated - but nonetheless adequate.
But who cares when there are places to visit and bars to drink at!
