Review summary

Getting on board was long and difficult. Getting off was easy. We carried our bags off. The service was far below what it was on our previous trips on Norwegian. I think the bar servers came around maybe 4 times during about 5 hours we spent on the deck. Maybe thats because most people had the beverage package, and the cruise line didn't want to give out many drinks. Who knows. Food in the main restaurants was OK, not excellent. I'd think twice before I choose Norwegian aver Princess. This was our first experience in an interior cabin. We tried it and won't do it again. The room steward was excellent.

THE CABIN WAS FOR FOUR PEOPLE, SO, THERE WERE TWO FOLD UP BUNKS. BE SURE YOU DON'T GET ONE MEANT FOR FOUR PASSENGERS, UNLESS YOU ARE TRAVELING WITH COMPANIONS OR CHILDREN AND PRICE IS VERY IMPORTANT. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET IN & OUT OF BED.
