This was my first time on the Epic and it was one of the best vacations I ever took, and certainly one of the 2 top cruises I have been on.
The 2 things that made this cruise great were the studio cabins and group of other stray dogs I met, as well as the entertainment, particularly the Howl at the Moon and Fat Cats.
I play the piano and was able to get up on stage 5 of the nights (including one night in the Taste dining room). In particular, the bandleaders involved many audience members who played instruments and sang in their sets during the week.
12513 is one of the better studios to book. It does not have a connecting door and is only next to one room. It is not near a door like 12514/12515 and therefore quieter.
