Review summary

Older ship, small but clean, very small pool. Extremely poor customer service, on second day of cruise had a flood in one of our four cabins due to a burst pipe, NCL was only going to dry it out with towels and fans, had to fight to have our kids moved to another cabin. No upgrade although ship was not full. Gave kids in this cabin each free meal @ upgraded restaurant but only after contacting guest services manager. Also felt like we were "nickel and dimed", there was a large fee for almost everything.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
If you wanted to eat at the "freestyle" dining, the food was mediocre. If you wanted to upgrade to a nicer restaurant, fees applied per person ($10-$25)> Food was good at those upgrades but...why should anyone have to pay so much extra to receive better food?

Entertainment

1 out of 5
The shows were good but most other activities were an additional fee.
