Overall I would give the ship a 3 out of 5 and with a few quick wins could easily be a 4. The ship looks impressive internally but little things like the sun loungers need replacing ,, plenty of them but showing wear and tear.
The food overall is really good in the MDR and the Mediterranean night especially worthy of a mention. Staff are attentive and very friendly and any requests dealt with quickly. The large buffet was however very busy and noisy and we used the smaller one on the upper level for.breakfast as it was far calmer. MSC have set times in MDR and no anytime option, this is a shame as sitting at the same table at the same time every night becomes a little repetitive.
The same time dining also impacts on the show times that can be used. There are three shows a night in the theatre and we would have liked to mix up the time we saw the shows. We went to four music nights .. Tina turner tribute, classic Italian songs, abba night and contemporary hits. All shows lasted approx 35 minutes and were really good with special mention to the two female leads who were excellent.
Great city, walk around and/or use hop on hop off bus. Take shuttle to get out of dock or walk. It’s easy and no need to pay cruise line.
