Review summary
Cabin, food, ample elevators, service all excellent. Down side is SEVERE lack of smoking areas. Outside at spice H20 unsheltered 12X24 area CRAMMED with people trying to get around chairs,umbrellas, ash stands. Casino CUBE when open only. Humidor off limits to cigarettes so there are ZERO sheltered smoking areas if casino closed. Clearly NCL doesn’t welcome smokers.Embarkation

Atrium
Entertainment, seating very nice
Casino
Generous slots. Many tables empty or just a few people there. Slots in halls have very comfortable but VERY heavy chairs. A glass cube with approximately 75 machines close together little space for drinks hard to move around in. HOT in there. Ashtrays are carried or hard to find, not kept clean. Bar service there terrible and not many places to put glass because of sloping slot decks and so close together, VERY heavy chairs and rows too close together
Entertainment
Social Comedy & Night Club
Great entertainment
Race Track
Lots of fun though puzzled as to extra charge!
