Magnifica Venice - thoughts and advice

[lhall85917]

We are new to MSC but not cruising and are considering the Magnifica leaving Venice on September 5. It matches well with the end of a land tour that is already booked. Reviews aren’t the best, but I don’t see anything recent so I’d love to hear some recent thoughts.I’ve searched this forum and seen discussions of a refurbish and new start dates.
In addition, I don’t really understand the different packages and promotions. The Memorial Day sale has the drinks and WiFi promotion, this seems to be an option added to the base price with a discounted package price for these two items. Is that correct? Any thoughts on cabin 9229 or 9222? Any help for a newbie considering this option would be appreciated!
