Sail Date: Mar 2010

Compared to all the other ships we have been on this has to be the most scruffy, wall paper and paint peeling off, cabin feels old and worn out, some clanging and banging at night, I admit I was not proud to be on this ship.Entertainment: is OK much better than NCL (which is awful) and the usual mad rush to the next show in the other lounge, but not bad overallExcursions: OK not a great variety but not too expensive eitherDinning: Funny setup, but ok, not much variety, in fact very limited compared to other cruises we have been on but good quality none the less.Drink: Prices are ok (good for a cruise) but again not much variety one brand of Larger (Stella), one brand of Bitter (well known brand but I can't remember)Staff: Reception was very disappointing to be honest, they would rather talk to each other than attend the desk so much so I gave up waiting and walked away , but the cabin crew were excellent, most of the other staff were very friendly (as to be expected) Would I go back on this ship? No, sorry, there are much better ships out there, but it was cheap so I'm not complaining (I suppose you get what you pay for in the end)

Cabin Review

Cabin OU

Old worn out fixtures and fittings, shabby, in dire need of a refit.

Port holes had putty all over them that stuck to your fingers, shower cubical very small (and seen better days) I felt sorry for the cleaner to be honest!

Small room with one power socket (American), not enough storage space.

Beds were acceptable, lighting was also acceptable.

3/10 but it was cheap!
