On board the MSC Seaside me and my fiancé were really mixed getting onto the ship. We’ve done our research and seeing the reviews we had our reservations before booking. We decided to go and give it a try. MSC kept it within our budget with a beautiful balcony room at a low cost. Coming onto the ship embarkation was a breeze no hassle no lines no fuss. The room was spectacular with lots of space and storage! Exploring the ship we noticed it to be very very clean with workers consistently cleaning areas multiples times a day. Now with the good there has to be some bad right. We noticed the food in the MDR was definitely a hit or miss. Some dishes were right up to par with restaurant quality dishes while others were just plain awful. The buffet was surprisingly really good with little to no lines at all for us. The food options weren’t the greatest with usually the same selection every night which was a downer. The pizza in the buffet was by far my favorite a must try for anyone taking this cruise. Overall the staff has been really friendly and have worked hard to maintain the ship and keep its patrons really happy. We loved the night time entertainment and went to almost every single show on board. Our favorite was the Peter punk show super fun show with some amazing acrobatic stunts. We loved almost everything about this ship and cruise line. For anyone hesitant about riding MSC I’d say this give them a chance. It was worth it.
