Pulling up right into the Havana port adjacent to Old Havana.

I like this size of ship because you never feel overwhelmed. The customer service by the staff was fantastic. It's nicely decorated with lots of indoor sitting areas. Deck 6 is great for a walk and jog except the smoking areas can be annoying. The Windjammer buffet had great choices and the dining room service was good and the food was just OK (steak and pasta dishes were mediocre). You can always count on great desserts!

The Boleros Lounge is nicely decorated and a great space but we hoped for better entertainment and a livelier atmosphere. The Viking Crown Lounge was a little boring and we were among the only people there. Headlining entertainment was fun but the other entertainment was not that great.

We enjoyed our stateroom and provided what we needed but most the time we were either out and about on the ship or in port. Internet service/WIFI was perfect. The gym included everything I needed and I used it a couple time.
