This is a lovely ship but not the pride of the fleet,with so many new ships coming in to service the crown lacks a main atrium area,the atrium at present is to small.And the layout of the ship is very poor ,the general areas are confusing to access from the lifts and stairs mainy times you are doubling back on yourself to go from a to b.The cruise was a sightseeing cruise with mainy American,Australian Canadian,and Japanese passengers,so the ship was empty during the day so there was plenty of sun beds etc.We found the food in the Michelangelo restaurant excellent very good with any time dining,service was very good and attentive,horizon court was busy all the time but you could find a table if you looked hard enough.The crown grill was exceptional at 29 dollars each well worth it for a special occasion.Our room was an inside cabin that was kept immaculate by our room steward towels changed 3times a day.Entertainment was I am sorry to say was rather poor David Copperfield was disappointing ,the chap in crooners bar was very good but only 2or 3 shows in the main theatre .The staff are excellent the cruise was excellent the food was exceptional the entertainment was disappointing so over all we would give the cruise a 90 out 100
