Review summary

If you are young it is a good idea not to choose this ship. This ship caters to the older folks. Food - Most of the complementary dining buffets close early. The one restaurant that is open 24/7 was awful. All of the complementary food was pretty poor quality. Also there is food available 24/7, but it is not completely complementary because they charge a convenience fee. If you want good food you will need to purchase the specialty dining package as this food was actually very good, but you will need a reservation because the time slots fill up quickly. Entertainment - Most of the good shows were reserved ahead of time so you didn't have many options if you don't enjoy making reservations. Very few interesting shows to choose from as they all looked rather dull. Stateroom - The one good thing about this cruise was that the person servicing our stateroom did a terrific job and was extremely friendly. Unfortunately, I will not be booking a cruise through Norwegian until I am a bit older.
