Perfect if Only Thing You Care About is Getting Drunk

I've been on about 10 cruises and this was by far my worst cruising experience all around. As everyone does when they board an all inclusive cruise, I went straight to the bar to order my first drink. I don't do typical frozen drinks, so I ordered a mojito, one of my favorite drink choices on other cruises. No joke, the mojito was ready in less than 30 seconds and was a puke green color with only a half rotten mint leaf put on top as a garnish. I took one sip and gave the drink back for a beer. We came to realize that popular mixed drinks like mojitos were pre-made and not the way to go. The second star is for the fact that they had a decent selection of liquor available under the all inclusive package, so I mostly ordered straight liquor with ice to avoid anymore pre-mixed drink nightmares. The quality of the service was shockingly unprofessional. Less a select few crew members that were polite and professional, almost every encounter with a crew member made me want to spontaneously combust with anger at how we were being treated. Dealing with intoxicated cruisers all day long must be tiring for the crew, but that doesn't excuse treating everyone as if they are beligerant drunks, especially when you are dead sober and just trying to have a nice relaxing time. We were constantly made to feel as if we were inconveniences for asking simple questions or requests. The quality of the food at the buffets was standard, and the staff working the buffets were actually the most helpful on the whole ship. The quality of the food in the main dining rooms was below average and the dining service was extremely slow and underwhelming compared to other cruise lines like Carnival and Royal Caribbean. My girlfriend was made to feel like a nuisance because of her tree nut allergy, and then was wrongly told she couldn't have meals that she ordered because of a "gluten" allergy that she didn't have. The ship is obviously an older ship, with dated amenities and decor. I suppose updating the ship after changing to all inclusive is probably not in the cards given the amount of damage that the demographic on the cruise does. As one might expect with an affordable all inclusive cruise, the demographic was very young compared to other cruises I've been on, with a lot of bachelor and bachelorette parties. Overall, I was unpleasantly surprised by my underwhelming experience on this Norwegian cruise, as I had heard and thought Norwegian was supposed to be a good cruise line. Thus, I'd only recommend this cruise if you're young and only really care about partying. But once you reach the point where you'd rather pay a little extra for better quality and service, I wholeheartedly advise not going on this cruise. I personally will never go on this cruise again and it will take a whole lot of convincing to get me to go on another Norwegian cruise.
