As good as some of the best hotels & restaurants I have used

Additional details
Once we were 'checked in' (which took about 20 minutes), were were dealt with efficiency and courtesy. Met on the pier, welcomed, guided to our cabin, shown its facilities and made to feel special.
Our cabin steward quickly made herself known to us and welcomed us. Indeed, the most refreshing and positive aspect of the whole cruise was the professionalism, helpfulness and friendliness of the staff, who went out of their way to serve us in every way. However, the very helpful and friendly demeanour never strayed into over-familiarity and this must be down to training and company philosophy and is to their credit
Our cabin had a few housekeeping issues on arrival, which were dealt with immediately -â€" thereafter our cabin was spotless, as were all visible areas on the vessel. Linen, floors and windows were all clean and very presentable. Having stayed in high-class hotels, we recognise the standards as equivalent to many, and a deal better than some.
Cabin Review
Veranda Suite
VERANDAH SUITE - Was spotlessly clean and well-equipped. We had sufficient space with a large double bed and ample storage including a walk-in wardrobe. A sitting area includes tables, two tub chairs and a sofa - so good enough to host a half-dozen folks for a drink. The verandah was spacious, but to be critical, had a wee bit too much furniture - a table, stool, two chair and a lounger with footstool - a bit cluttered frankly, but we made very enjoyable use of it, particularly for the stunning sunsets.
We have stayed in hotel rooms which have been smaller and not been as clean and comfortable, and at nowhere the same value for money!
