The most important question is, would we cruise again ? The answer is yes, if the price was right. . It was over priced overall for what we received. The ship is currently having a well needed refit, which will help. The food is a bit hit or miss in the buffet market place, at times. The evening entertainment was repetitive with the onboard staff (dancers and entertainers) covering most evenings. The restaurant food was really nice. Having announcements in the cabin from 8am was annoying, and the fact that it wasn’t necessary. The staff were very pleasant and welcoming.
