The decoration has a touch of classical style, and there are different sculptures outside the museum, which will be very beautiful if the weather is sunny. The "Pearl" exhibition during this period is very meaningful, and the works of the two art masters Li and Xiong are also very rich.

A highly recommended place to stay. The environment is very clean and the service staff are very friendly. The room is very comfortable and there is no strange smell. The bathroom is equipped with hand wash, face wash and body cleaning products, towels, and bathroom slippers. There are hangers and a hair dryer in the closet. There are also indoor slippers in the room. The toilet is a bidet. What's more attractive is that the meals are really attentive, with many varieties and delicious! I will come again next time if I have the chance. It is a very recommended place to stay.

The exchange is very simple, but the Klook order can only be picked up on the day of the boat (the official website allows you to pick up the tickets at the same time) The opening time for meals is very short and there are not many choices, but you can bring your own food on board and need to eat in the dining area

Pros: It's a new ship and not too shaky. You can enjoy the view while eating and chatting. It's very comfortable. The air conditioning is strong enough! Cons: There are hairs on the pillows of the berths; there is a shared female toilet. There are 3 restaurants on the first floor. The food they sell is not diversified enough and the hours are very short.
