As I am currently waiting to disembark MSC seaside, I have decided to write my review. It is a beautiful ship but a very small casino to say the least. The casino wasn’t kind to me at all. I played slots as well as blackjack & roulette. No jackpots here! I met the casino host one time and that was it. He was hardly ever seen. As for the drink person, there was only one on the floor and the wait to get a drink was beyond. The staff did not seem as friendly as on other cruise ships. The food - I give it a 4 out of a 10. Not much to choose from in the main dining room at all. The buffet - that was a joke to say the least. It was was the same food every single day. Pizza, hot dogs, burgers, salad, cheese, deli meats & potato salad. As for guest services - always a long line, at least an hour wait to get to the counter! However I will say they do have good shows in the theater. I saw Peter Punk & The Wizard. They say you have to sign up for these shows as they are compacity controlled but that was a waste of time because anyone could walk in and at one point for a different show, there were no seats left. I had reservations for 3 shows but was only able to attend two because people who didn’t sign up, walked in and sat down. Overall, I give the cruise experience a 2 out of 5 stars. I am thankful for the opportunity to sail on such a beautiful ship but would pass on MSC.
