Norwegian Star Review

Norwegian Star to Bermuda May 6-13
Fairly new to cruising my husband and I started taking Norwegian cruises 2 years ago. Before we first went I wasn't thrilled about the thought of going on a cruise due to a previous experience some years ago, but he was paying so I was willing to give it a try. In the past 2 years he's been on 4 Norwegian cruises and I've been on 7.
Our latest was on the grand Norwegian Star sailing from NY to Bermuda. The crazy Tri-boro bike race going on so getting to the pier took a bit of ingenuity. We took a cab hoping to be able to cross over at 32nd street (nothing doing and the cop there was clueless about where we could do) so after having the cabbie drop us off at 42nd, we hopped on the shuttle at Grand Central and took it to Time Square, grabbed the C train one stop to 50th and walked over 4 blocks. We really should have just taken the C train from Queens in the first place.
Cabin Review
Obstructed Oceanview
Our obstructed ocean view vertical cabin that was across the hall from where the stewards and other crew would enter. Sometimes you'd hear noise coming from there but not much.
Any noise basically came from noisy passengers walking down the hallway. Usually they weren't too bad but there's always some obnoxious drunk, child that hasn't been taught inside voice, or perfectly sober adult that hasn't grasped that concept as well, being closer to the stairs and elevators meant that you'd hear them more than you would in traditional horizontal facing cabins.
What you do have is the lights from deck 7, even thought the drapes were light blocking some would still seep in from the bottom so I'd suggest a sleep mask.
