5.0 - Excellent
My husband and I spent two nights on Indochine Cruise. Our cabin on the third deck was exquisite-the bedroom and bathroom were very large and there was a balcony to set outside. The staff was kind and courteous. I really enjoyed the excursions off the boat.
The food served on the cruise was good, not great. The jacuzzi was cold.
