**DISCLAIMER : this is a really long review ... I really like to talk. It provides a thorough review of my experience and of the ship**

Hello, this is my first cruise review although I have been on 7 before, primarily with Carnival. Coming into the cruise, I had low expectations for the ship, and its' offering of activites. I am 15 years old, and I traveled with my brother, aged 17, and my parents. Before we embarked on our voyage, we stayed 4 nights in Rome before making our way to Civitavecchia, where we set sail on July 1st. After 4 strenuous days and nights touring the eternal city, a relaxing cruise would be the perfect end to a vacation. However, after reading through reviews on my own before the trip began, I was worried there would be nothing for my brother and I to do at the teen club (Fuel), let alone there be any Americans onboard! We were definitely mistaken at these aspects. Without further ado, please enjoy the review!

Cabin Review

Ocean View Balcony

Cabin 2D

Our mid-ship balcony cabin was situated in between the forward and midship elevators. There was an abundance of space to store close, toiletries and other things one may have brought with them. The beds were comfortable and the room was updated. Don't be fooled by pictures of the room on the website - the carpet is redone, the furnishings are newer, and the boxy TV is replaced by a flat-screen. Besides our shower practically exploding (the pipe disconnected from the shower head and sprayed water around), and even this was fixed quickly, everything else was smooth. Our cabin steward could have been better, but that was a small detail in the midst of every other beautiful thing on this ship!
