I chose this cruise as part of a 2 week Spring Break vacation and traveled with my best friend. This was my 13th cruise and I have definitely enjoyed all of them, this was no different.

Embarkation and Cabin

We embarked in Hamburg and arrived at the port at about 11:30 am, and essentially walked right onto the ship. We were sitting in the Tiger Bar by 12:00 pm and weren't hungry (ate a large breakfast prepping for a longer wait time) so we watched a show on a laptop until 1, then wandered to the buffet then our room. We had booked an inside cabin bella experience, but were granted a balcony room (9119) it was lovely! since we had 2 weeks of clothing each, the storage was a little small, but we made it work. Everything was clean, later that night we had an issue with the electricity in our cabin (some worked some didn't) but before I could tell guest services the next day (as it was 1 am and we just wanted to sleep) it corrected itself and we had no further issues.
