Review summary
The best part of the cruise was the entertainment, which was outstanding. Everything else was the worst I've ever experienced and I will never cruise with NCL again. The food was substandard, the ship was dirty and not maintained, and there was virtually no service. Their drink packages do not include bottled water or specialty coffee, which is the very first I've come across in 20+ cruises. I think k this is very pretty!! The staff is NOT very friendly with the exception of my cabin steward who was wonderful. I dined in a variety of strings and was disappointed. The only area that was decent dining was chin chin. Even carnival cruises surpassed NCL by a mile. The ship is in need of repair. Public bathrooms were discussing dirty. It took 2 hours to disembark and I missed my plane. I couldn't have been more disappointed!!
