Review summary

Overall the cruise was good. Met some really great people!  Staff seemed very indifferent for the first several days. Not very friendly. Did not even meet my cabin steward until the third day of the cruise. A noticeable change was observed about halfway through the cruise. The restaurants have a lot of room for improvement. Book your specialty dining early! Seems that the quality has gone down since my last cruise in NCL (August 2016). Entertainment was wonderful! Will continue to cruise with NCL in the future but I do hope to see some improvements.

Cabin / Stateroom

The beds are very short for tall people. Ankles and feet hung off the bed. Loved the amount of storage space and the larger than usual shower.
