The ship looked as nice as it does in photos (on the outside anyway). The crew was very friendly and accommodating. Though we were never told that tables were assigned, so after settling down into one by window, we were moved to a middle row, away from window. There were three of us, and only two to the party that took our place at the window table.
The buffet was like a movie version of a bad wedding reception, and left a lot to be desired for $65. Mostly fillers, and some fish, and chicken dishes, but nothing that warranted the hefty price tag, and that was with the Goldstar discount.
Drinks (except water/tea) were extra. Except ours which were comps, when I got hit in the back with flying glass from the bartender dropping one, and found glass in my hair :-\
Would never go back, and aside from food and glass, not the place for anniversary or intimate occasion.
Very nice trip. Too much entertainment and not enough couples dancing. This cruise goes from the docks to just South of the Wilson Bridge- so you don't see too many DC sights.
A FRIEND AND I WENT AND WE HAD A FUN TIME. THE MUSIC WAS GOOD AND THE ENTERTAINMENT WAS ALSO GOOD. THE FOOD WAS TASTY AND WE ENJOYED LOOKING OUT AT THE VIEW FROM THE BOAT. WE DANCED AND CHATTTED WITH THE PEOPLE WHO WERE SEATED NEXT TO US. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS FOR ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING FUN AND DIFFERENT TO DO.
