The ship was on par with other cruise lines and the staff was friendly. The cabin was good. The food was terrible, most of the time served cold and in small portions. The buffet was the same menu all week long. Everyone was complaining about it. Other than room service, food was not available after 9:00PM for the most part. Shipboard activities were practically non-existent, but the shore excursions were good. There was no TV other than pay per-view. I would not recommend this cruise to anyone. The rooms were good but the entertainment was poor. Do not take MSC Cruises! The trip included other activities besides the cruise so overall we enjoyed ourselves.
