Review summary

NCL food was above average. The entertainment had only one production show. Comedy Club was good. Did not care for Game shows as the main entertainment. No movies outdoors at night. All movies ended by 9PM or so. NCL is what it is. A nice clean ship with hard working staff. If you know what your getting up front you will be fine.
