Review summary

Disembarkation was terrible. NCL staff said they hadn't docked at that terminal before. We were in lines with only one elevator. Ship was nice & clean and staff were great.

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Cagneys the best. Main dining room at in Aqua-Service & food good. La Cucina was decorated like it had been the Japanese restaurant previously. Did like at buffet restaurant that it didnt go in a complete circle. Bothe sides dead ended and you had to back track.

Ship Quality

Didnt like layout of the buffet area. We were on the 10th floor & for unknown reason the elevator would skip 10. or when the elevator did open we would take it in the opposite direction just to get on and take a ride down just to go up.
