Cabin: Balcony Stateroom

Terrible. The ship is poorly designed. The dining facilities are very undersized. The theater where the excursions are dispatched holds half of the guests. Dispersion of the excursions is chaos. Restaurants are poorly manages and the food is substandard and stale. Restaurants close at odd hours and don't open for breakfast at a reasonable time. The buffet is over crowded, insufficient seating. There are supervisors running about everywhere, the whole place is chaos. Room cleaning is not pna set schedule, the help is always interrupting you. None of the staff speak English even though this ship saills from an American port. The entertainment is childish and silly. If you are not a drunk or gambler, don't bother with this cruise. The cabins are TINY, even tho we bought an "upgraded" cabin. Everything is jammed in. The hot water for the shower took 20 minutes to get Luke warm. Do not waste your time and money with this cruise. Maybe a different ship, a different libe would be better. They need a rating below terrible to catagorize this cruise.
