We chose this cruise because of the BOGO value and we were then upgraded. Also wanted to give this line a try. Here is my overall review. I've been on 10 cruises on almost all the lines so I have experiences to compare to:
Embarkation & Disembarkation - A breeze (lots of people commenting) the only negative was misinformation for US citizens at disembarkation, cruise director told everyone they only needed to show drivers license to get off. INCORRECT.
ROOM: Bigger was not better. Do not stay in 13193. Although our room size was very comfortable it had several negatives. First, to high up, lots of motion, had to take a bonine first time ever on a cruise ship. Next, being under the buffet was horrible, noise, chairs, carts rolling as late as midnight and as early as 4am every day. The furniture in the room was somewhat gross. Coffee table, rusted, pitted and dusty, bottom of fridge was full of dust (have pics) ceiling light fixtures, rusted & pitted, carpet needed to be replaced or shampooed, walls all scuffed and couch was stained and sticky!! Mattress needs some kind of mattress protector or double sheeting. Balcony huge but no lounge chair and hadn't been swept, black hair everywhere. bathroom floor needs to be bleached. Disappointing, after asking the question, we were not entitled to the Wellness package. Didn't make sense to me, we paid an additional fee, they said we were upgraded to the wellness class, but not the package.
Needs to be overhauled. The noise level in this cabin from buffet above was horrible. Needs a lounge chair on oversized balcony. Needs a deep cleaning
