There was heaps to do inside the ship depending on what you liked doing. There was level 5, 6 and 7 where there were places to go to. All of them were accessible for me in the wheelchair. I couldn't get out to the deck on level 7 as the exit ramp was again just a very steep and short gradient which made it difficult and unsafe.
LEVEL 5 - you can see this in the photos below. This had the international coffee shop, the library, a bar where you could buy wine and have tapas food. There was a shop that didn't sell much and a couple of restaurants, as well as the art gallery where you could buy art work.
LEVEL 6 - There was the reception area, the clothes and accessory shop, and the perfume shop, as well as a couple of restaurants.
LEVEL 7 - Another bar, casino, piano bar area for entertainment at night, Italian restaurant, a larger entertainment area with a stage and dance floor area, as well as bar. Another lounge/bar area that had a different layout and a small band singing at night time. Plenty of seats along the window side, and the huge theatre that I think seated 1000 people or so. There they had comedians, shows and showed a movie during the day.
