On the other hand, room service was outstanding, with a much wider choice than usual among hot and cold sandwiches, dinners, soups, salads, desserts, and cheese dishes, and choices from the dining room menu. Service was quick and good. Among the late night buffets, the Dessert Extravaganza, with its Dutch Chocolate Treat, was the most popular. Overall the staff is good, but there are variations ranging between spectacular and unresponsive. Standard staterooms are decorated either in shades of peach or blue, and all beds can be arranged as singles or queen.
All staterooms have sofas and nearly three-quarters have sofabeds, great for families.
Six staterooms are designed to accommodate physically challenged passengers. Safes are operated by any card the passenger may have with a readable strip, eliminating the need for memorized codes. Lighting by the bed is good, and bathroom amenities are generous and very good. There is enough closet and drawer space for two, although anyone using the sleep sofa for children might have to be ingenious about space for additional clothing and toys. On the Lower Promenade Deck there are cabins with obstructed views.
