Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Beds were a bit too soft, but once told of issue, it was addressed immediately. As I said out steward could have done much better. He was friendly but said room was double locked a couple times and wasnt cleaned.

We liked the Gem too. But I think we may have had the same room steward. He was not great and our suite could have been much cleaner. Definitely not up to NCL standards. Looking at the deck plans, our cabins were close to each other. We had a great time on our cruise.
