I had a terrible smell in my bathroom. After 4 days of them "fixing it" and calling my wife and I liars and that there was no smell (smelled like days old urine), we just had to give up on trying to get it fixed and they didn't offer any kind of room change or anything else to make it up to us.

NCL is one of the three lines I've vowed never to go on again.

The only bad review I ever left was on NCL's Pride of America to Hawaii. You can read my profile if you want. It will explain more.
