Review summary

Very disappointed in the lack of care with regards to the air conditioning. It was too hot to even sleep. I should not have had to complain so many times. Every time we went to the front desk, they pretended like it was the first time. Ship was a bit small for my liking but the people were nice. Specialty restaurants excellent. Buffet boring. Same things most every day. I mean how many times can you have rotisserie chicken at the carving station. Twice max would have been fine. Indian food was Dal, Dal, Dal. I was disappointed every day since this is one of the reasons I cruise Norwegian. They normally have excellent varieties of Indian food. Overall, just an OK cruise. Doing the Prima next.

Air Conditioning was not working. After 8 trips and calls to the front desk, they finally moved us into an air conditioned cabin. 3 days without AC was torture and not any compensation whatsoever. The one they finally moved us to was ok. Those bathtubs are awful if you are short.
