With this being my first cruise and nothing to compare it to, my review will be completely unbiased.
We had a hull balcony room on deck 8, front of ship. You can feel alot here, book mid ship if you can. Our room was a good size, I felt, and the beds and pillows were comfortable.
The food was average to less than average. We did not eat at any specialty restaurants. The Vanietian at the back of the ship is one of the main dining rooms, and while beautiful with pretty good, prompt service, the food was lacking. I ordered the baked Ziti, and it tasted like a low quality microwaved frozen dinner. I think I have actually had frozen that tasted better. Husband got the steak and the cook was just as ordered. The desert was just ok. nothing spectacular.
Cabin was a good size for my husband and I. It was clean and the balcony was wonderful. You can feel alot more of the ship movement here, as well as hear the stardust theater.
