This was our first trip to Alaska, and our second Norwegian cruise.
We sailed with our daughter and her boyfriend, first time cruisers who usually travel very frugally, frequently camping or staying in hostels, so we weren't sure how they would like the relative luxury of a cruise ship. We needn't have worried.
We had a great time on the Sun. It's a smaller ship and older (you can tell by the truly miniscule showers, which is really the only bad thing I can say about the accomodations. It's less glitzy than other ships we have sailed on, but lovely and comfortable and clean.
Good access to Las Ramblas, Sevens Seas, aft buffet.Tiny shower, oddly placed, old hairdryer that kept coming apart during use.Good storage, plenty of drawer and cupboard space.Quiet area, nice balcony space
