Review summary

CABIN LOCATION AND EXITING AND ENTERING THE SHIP. CABIN LAYOUT WAS NOT GOOD. BED BUTTED UP TO CLOSET. BALCONIES WERE SMALL

AND THERE WERE NO DRAWERS ONLY SHELVES.SERVING TIME IN RESTAURANTS WERE LONG AND GARDEN BUFFET AREA WAS ON LONG STRAIGHT SERVING COUNTER WITH PASSENGERS BUMPING INTO EACH OTHER. SPA AREA WAS LOVELY BUT EXPENSIVE, AS ALWAYS. DEBARKATION WAS EASY UNTIL ONE TRIED TO FIND THEIR LUGGAGE IN A SEA OF THOUSANDS OF SUITCASES WIDELY DISPERSED AND AFTER WAITING IN LONG LINES AND GREAT DISTANCE TO YOUR DESIGNATED COLOR AREA. FIRST AND LAST TIME ON A BIG SHIP. I'LL STICK WITH THE SMALLER ONES.

I REPEAT. NO DRAWERS, CLOSET LOCATION PARALLEL TO BED DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE AND SMALLER THAN AVERAGE BALCONIES. BATHROOMS NICE

Ship tip

MODERNO HAS THE BEST FOOD OFFERINGS. GARDEN CAFE FOOD WAS INFERIOR TO THE RESTAURANTS. BREAKFAST GREAT AND SAVOR AND TASTE BUT SERVICE VERY SLOW. iF YOU LIKE LARGE SHIPS WITH CITY SIZE PASSENGER POPULATIONS ITS GREAT. OTHERWISE STICK TO NCL'S SMALLER SHIPS.
