The Mariner of the Seas 09.15.12 cruise to the Holy Land from Rome was a very disappointing experience. It was the worst of the five cruises we have sailed on.
The ship was very dated with chipped and broken bits in the bathroom, faded dank smelling hallway carpets with stains and sticky tables and chairs in the Windjammer restaurant.
The floors were sticky all the time in the 5th floor pastry cafe
Cabin was dated and noisy from the disco below. We had to be moved. Bathrooms were the smallest we have experienced. Bathroom had a chipped floor and chipped mirror and a dirty shower stall. TVs were apparently new, but had very poor resolution.
Remote controls did not work well.
