Review summary

Our cruise was a combination celebration of my husband's birthday and our 38th wedding anniversary.  We have sailed on Norwegian before so we knew about free style and we like the consept.  The only real problem was our room.  We would leave around 9am every morning with the "Please make up our room" on the door and return around 1pm to find the room was not done.  The same in the evening.  We eat early so we would leave at 6pm and return around 9pm and the room was either just being made up or not done at all.  Dishes would sit in the hall all day.  The food was of good variety and flavors.  The staff was friendly and helpful.  I will sail with Norwegian again and hope they improve on their room stewards situation

Overall staff was good. Even our room steward was good just late in making our room up every day.

Ship tip

If you like sushi or Japanese dishes try the dinning room on deck 12. Good price and good food. Be sure and visit deck 13 just once to get a wonderful view from the top, top deck.

I, too, gave up on using the Make up the Room or Do Not Disturb signs.  They have their own way of doing the rooms.  If we need to have the room made up quickly or have it done later, we call or locate the steward and tell him face-to-face.  That works better.
