11.The teas were less than pathetic...the same insignificant offerings each day. For a ship that espouses excellence, this was a downer. First, it is only fair to outline some of the excellent features of this cruise. The staff was incredible: personable, capable, polite and expert (except our stewardess, who was often forgetful). The food in all venues was excellent almost all the time. The alcohol served was done well and generously. The chef was exceptionally personable and capable. That's the good news.
Now, unfortunately, the negatives: 1. Constant slamming of cabin suite doors was maddening...the mechanism should be replaced.
2. The ship needs the dry dock ....apparently it will be there in Nov. 2010, but too late for us.
too narrow, french balcony useless and annoying; bathroom storage not adequate; door slamming: needs repair...
