Small pools, not enough chairs. Families would save chairs with towels at 6:00 am. Staff would pull them off.
The halls were constantly crowed. You were constantly weaving in and out to get around.
My balcony room was smaller than other ships I had been on before. My worst experience was mine and my sister's rooms on deck 9. Rooms 9441 and 9152. Fat Cats nightclub was a ways down on deck 8, however, between 10:00pm - 12:00am 9441's floor would vibrate and you felt like the club was right under your room. You could hear the words of the songs and drums. My balcony room (9441) was 6 feet away and could hear the music, but not as bad at my sister's inside room with her husband with two kids. I'm a light sleeper so, it was not acceptable to me. Besides, my husband and I are asleep in our room before 10:00 pm. We complained and, fortunately, I was given another room very quite room on deck 9 and she moved into mine, even though we were initially told the ship was completely "sold out". I am forever grateful to Norwegian for that. My sister now had a balcony room. She noticed that after the 2nd night, there was no more late night music. It was scheduled to play at the same time for seven nights. A high-level staff member (white ships uniform,skirt/blouse) was put into room 9441 after my sister moved out. She must have decided that the loud music was unacceptable and took action.
Noisy room: Almost directly over Fat Cats. Floor vibrated with the music and you could hear the instruments and words of the song....that badBalcony is the smallest I have ever had on a ship.Not enough room storage, no draws.Prior to trip, I read the room reviews and brought the following extra's with me in my suitcases:1. Bar soap2. Shampoo bottle3. Extra clothes hangers4. Over the door pocket storage for socks, under ware, etc.
