Review summary

Did not meet my expectations. We made the best of it and enjoyed ourselves immensely, but we were somewhat disappointed in the quality of this cruise for the money spent.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Well organized and efficient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Manhattan Room is excellent. Cagney's steak house and the hibachi restaurant were also fabulous. Savor is great for breakfast. Noodle shop, sushi and Italian aren't as good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Gambling, bingo, nightclub. Many activities canceled due to weather.

Entertainment

Couldn't get reservations. All sold out by the time we embarked

Children's Programs

No kids.

Service and Staff

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

The air conditioner didn't work properly even after numerous calls. The drawer was broken And the balcony view is obstructed. Size and cleanliness were good.

Loved it. We left a day early because of the weather. I wasn't happy about that. We docked about 6 hours earlier than anticipated.

Pay no attention to the negative comments. I think quite a few of them are people who are just either too picky or just have to complain about something. Cruising is what you make it. Things happen that at times are out of your control. So just sit back and relax. And we too will be on the same cruise, usually hanging out at the atrium bar on the corner!

We are leaving on the 19th. First time on Norwegian and taking the kids. It’s disheartening to read some of these reviews.
