Acceptable Experience
comfortable bed very good service friendly staff old barge no atmosphere miserable location
My room was appointed well with a very comfortable bed. The service I received from arrival until departure was first class. All crew and staff were friendly and helpful. Nothing was like too much trouble.
The vessel looked more like an old barge. It was disappointing. I felt there was no atmosphere. The location was MISERABLE.
