Cabin number: 8020

Review summary

Nice ship and staff. Had balcony room. Toilet in room failed to work properly for the entire 7 day trip, complained to staff, they supposedly repaired it but never flushed normally after use. Food was good in formal resturaunt but not at buffet. No free lobster nite anymore with NCL. Did not realize better food in the pay resturaunts. They charged $13.50 each per day for tips, I formally made complaint last day and management waived fee for all problems with out bathroom toilet.

I agree. Quality of food in main dinning rooms is not what it used to be. If you pay extra in the specialty rooms you get somewhat better cuisine. But good luck getting a table if you don't book before you board.

Can't believe people will pay $2500 to $3000 for a cruise and complain about $13.50 day for gratuities. Get real.

So you didn't tip your room steward, waiters, etc. because of a problem with your toilet?
