The ship was fantastic especially the quality of the cabin we had, which was a Stateroom Balcony. The only disappointment was the quality of the food, as the steak in the steak restaurant wasn't very good and the signature restaurants were all the same type of food cooked differently. Most of the staff were friendly, especially the cleaning staff. Overall a very good experience on the Ascent. In one of the bars, which specialised in Whisky, one of the waiters did not know what malt whiskey was!!

Ascent is a brilliant ship. Second time travelled on her. Most dining was fine, but Cyprus restaurant was like eating in the dark. Would recommend this ship. Entertainment was generally good but Elton John act was crass. Good set of fellow passengers.
