  The A-Rosa Sena is a great river cruiser, modern, spacious and comfortable. Likes : All the staff are fantastic although I did find them to be misinformed at times. The food is great and I loved the buffet styled meals. Loved the 3 destinations, Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Utrecht and gives you a great taster if its worth visiting the cities. There was always some sort of evening entertainment. I really like that the review on the next day destination was in english and she really went out of her way to make sure we were well informed and had some sort of itinerary. Dislikes : COFFEE, coming from Australia we appreciate having a good quality coffee in the morning. The Coffee Machines that provides "speciality" coffee is only available when the bar opens at 11. I saw the exact same machines at all the hotels we stayed in Germany and available with your breakfast. Filtered / drip coffee was served at 7:30 and with breakfast and it was awful, I couldn't drink it, was far too strong. Staff advised this is a newly introduced policy as the coffee machines was available 24/7 on previous cruises. There was barista styled coffee available for a fee, we did not take advantage of this as it was expensive. There were so many complaints from passengers but kept being told that it was an instruction from the head office. Not sure why the ship management crew can't make a call to please their customers / passengers. WiFi is almost none existent. It was only really available in the bar and dining room. We were initially given 5 gig allocation and that seem to run out very quickly, then 3 gigs. Concidering we were off the the river cruiser during the day, we can't understand how we went through so much data and we had app and software updates turned off. Why limit the data? There were basic beers and a very average white and red wine available. For cocktails, spirits and barista style coffee was either extra or you could purchase a drinks package for an extra 19 Euros per day. It would have been great it some of the landmarks were called out as we cruised along the river, even if it is broadcasted in the general areas. Perhaps they can install a public announcements for the captain / First officer instead of them having to come down to the customer service area to provide updates. I just felt like there was continuous gouging, always something that we needed to pay extra for which really made it feel like we were on a budget cruise.
