CoupleVerified bookingJan 20263/5When you were on deck, you couldn't hear the audio guide. The deck was very small. Smoking was allowed on deck. Inside, it was crowded and stuffy. In addition, you had to sit at a table with other people without direct access to the window, so you could hardly see anything. Most of the windows were also fogged up or dirty. At some point, they ran out of cocoa. So much for unlimited. The staff was very friendly.AAnette K
