Review summary

Having had major misgivings about NCL Star following numerous technical problems and even complete engine failure on the open seas (that resulted in major itenary changes), I must say that my wife and I found the 7 day Mediterranean Cruise most enjoyable. Although the ship is showing its age a bit and the decor is dated, everything seemed to be well maintained and clean. The staff members were always friendly and helpful. We were also pleasantly surprised by the quality of food offered in the various restaurants. Not fine dining, but definately good quality food. If you can, try getting a stateroom with a balcony. Don't opt for organised tours - they are costly and we found our way around each port easily enough. My one little gripe would be that water and Cappuccinos are not included in the drinks package. Since we had very few alcoholic beverages this seemed a bit mean.
