We never felt welcome onboard by most of the staff. There seems to be a morale issue within the staff. Most did not smile. Terrible embarkation. We will NOT be returning to the NCL Getaway. Ports were not interesting.

Long lines - stretched out into the street
Ship experiences
Food and Dining

Specialty restaurants were fantastic. Garden Cafe started good but quality seemed to go down over the cruise.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Lots to do - I am 64 yr old man and I enjoyed the ropes course. They could add more movies in a theater.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Stage shows were great.
Children's Programs
No children
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
Room steward was excellent. However, most staff looked like they hated their job and could not smile or laugh. Usually, if you asked a question, then staff would smile and answer then go back to deadpan face. Shop staff were very inefficient.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Casino is in center of ship on level 7 with an open area to level 6 and 8. Casino is a heavy smoking area. Thus smoke clouds are on three levels in the ship center.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Clean, well maintained by steward. Balcony is so small, it barely holds two people. Bed was very comfortable.
Ship tip
Take some magnet hooks. Walls and doors are metal. Our wall hooks held anywhere.
