Review summary
Dining room service was slow and food was lackluster. Went to the paid resturaunts and the entree didn't arrive for an hour and a half. Every time I turned around it seemed that Norwegian had another charge. By the end of the week the cruise cost almost as much as a Disney cruise with roughly half of the service quality. Probably won't return.

Ship tip
Freestyle cruising really means "free range". The service and food in the dining rooms was obviously meant to push you to the pay as you go resturaunts. Then those were slow too. Splash Academy was outstanding though!
