Embarkation went very smoothly in sydney on the boat in less than 30 minutes anddisembarkation very fast as we carried our own bags.
The ship was lovely in the renovated sections of the Restaurants, cabins certainly need refurnishing (our cabin steward was very obliging). as does the show room but overall a pleasant experience except for thestench of sewage in different parts of the ship and the fact that the public toilets werecontinually out of order.
The Pantry was very hit and miss the breakfast pastries tasted like they had been left over from the last cruise!!
Balcony Cabin plenty of storage clean and tidy but definitely could do with refreshing
Shower room very tiny. Cabin Steward was very obliging and worked extremely hard.
