We chose this cruise because of the price, not being aware of the the "extra fees" such as a fuel surcharge and other fees that most cruises don't charge. After reading reviews, I was hesitant about the conditions of the rooms and am pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised. The rooms were clean, and the person who worked in our section of the ship was very kind. He went out of his way to make sure our room was kept clean. The beds were comfortable, and we had no issues there.

The Fins dining was good. The buffet was ok. The buffet has a wide variety of food, but lacked quality (specifically the scrambled eggs.)
