Review summary

First of all the mattress was not straight (it was lumpy and sunken in the center)

We ask practically every day for regular coffee and creamers.We purchased

a beverage package but we were charged for the water and a couple of drinks

from the mini bar.Also we were charged without notified for cruise staff Gaming

Totally dissapointed from the hidden charges. I do not think hat I will take another

cruise with Norwegian

I wouldn't discount complaints just because of poor grammar.... some of the posters have English as a second language. A lot of "grammar perfect" people have incredibly imperfect complaints

We have been on 6 NCL and really enjoyed them. Of course the mini bar isn't included, and bottled water never was, Carnival just started March 1 adding water to their drink package.

Don't be nervous. We just finished a cruise with Norwegian. It was very good. Food, drinks and ports were great. Shows were also. We have been on 4 different lines and they have all been good. Just depends on what you expect I guess. It is really what you make it minus unforseen issues that may have risen.

All of the extra charges were stated in the pkg. All cruise lines have the same policy about mini bar. Some drink pkgs include water now. Just so you know for your next cruise. :)

I have no clue on gaming. Did he think it was free to gamble? Some think Bingo is free..but is not.

Maybe they are referring to gratuities. If not paid in advance, they will be on the account while on the ship.
