We were disappointed that they cut out the live music in the Ocean Bar before dinner. Also they don't have the pre-dinner light classics in the 2nd floor lounge either. In addition there is no more live music on the pool deck. They have the Lincoln Centre on the 2nd floor which is set up concert style. The musicians talk too much and the music is pretty long hair.
