Ok, I'm just gonna go category-by-category so I don't forget anything:

SHIP: This ship legit looked like it was straight out of 1992--and not in a cool nostalgic kind of way. It is dated. Really dated. And it smells. My friends and I narrowed it down to this list of rotating odors that waft throughout the ship at any given time: cigarettes, farts, garbage or some other unpleasant smell we couldn't identify. The pool was a weird shade of green that looked like algae... I didn't get in once(and I usually swim like a fish). A part of the ship that was GOOD was the Serentiy Adults Only deck. The only complaint here though, is that the hot tubs were dirty. Like, the water left a weird brown residue on my bikini and my friends' bikinis as well. Gross. The Pride Dining Room was ok. Entrees were hit or miss; ultimately the best meal I had all week was the filet mignon that I had to pay an extra $20 for.

CABIN: It was fine.... a typical indoor room. Only issue here was there wasn't a fridge! Also, our bathroom had all sorts of little gnats/flies flying around the top of the bathroom and dozens of dead bugs were above the door, in the corner of the ceiling and on the floor as well. Kinda gross.

Catalina Island (California)

Beautiful scenery! Now that I've been, I'd only advise going in the hottest summer months. But it's still lovely to look at and walk around in the cooler temps, just didn't get in the water or anything.
