Unique Stay Aboard a Historic Liner!

original characterquick check-inefficient processprompt service
I TRULY loved the experience. The officer suite was beautiful. The ship retains much of its original character, with unique touches like portholes. Upon my late arrival, check-in was quick and efficient, and I was escorted to my room. I asked for the sofa bed to be prepared immediately, and a staff member promptly did it.
The room did NOT have any windows that could be opened. It would be nice if they introduced a guided tour inside the ship for new guests.

Breakfast was amazing. A vast array of food was available! Jantar no deck foi muito agradável e a comida muito boa com preços extremamente acessíveis. The breakfast price is exorbitant for NO reason and should be revised.
