Good:
\n* The ease of getting food. It was not hard to get food at any time, though sometimes it could be a hassle to get exactly the food you wanted.
\n* The quantity of food. There was plenty, you just had to ask for it.
\n* The cabin. We were surprised by the fact that the beds were bunks, having expected two slightly larger beds, but the cabin itself was larger than I expected.
\n* Ease of staying on budget. This was mostly because of the food deal, but there were no surprise charges and we did not overspend at all.<\/p>\n
Bad:
\n* There were these hand sanitizers all over the ship, and you were forced to use them any time you went into a restaurant. I do know how to wash my hands, thank you.
\n* For the first half of the cruise, you weren’t allowed to serve yourself from the buffets. They were making the crew serve the items to you, which really gummed up the works. They abolished this by the end of the journey.
\n* The waiters in the restaurants were really hit or miss, and mostly miss. They didn’t always provide the most stellar service.<\/p>\n
Whatever:
\n* The programming on the ship. I didn’t go to much of it, and I didn’t feel like I missed much, but if\/when we do another one, I may make more effort to try some.<\/p>\n
So, overall, I would recommend this cruise. It was inexpensive, and if you’re in the Boston area, the departure makes it extremely convenient. But you shouldn’t go in expecting 5-star dining service, just good, decent food and ok waitstaff.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
