I would say the cruise was just "ok" Dominican was like dropping us in the middle of Harlem and the food was not even close to Celebrity's worst ship the Zenith. Most the crew spoke English very poorly then again half the passengers spoke French as their primary language. So in the end it was 10 days with only 3 ports of call. That really took everything out of me. Forget about getting a chair outside even away from the pool. Once I had to sit on the ground on deck 7 because there where no chairs anywhere outside on any level.
I wouldn't stop someone from going with NCL but I will not do it again. So far Celebrity blows them away! Oh well it beats working and it was nice to get a break. I was even happy to get home which I never am so I can look at that as a plus!
I wouldn't be so upset with the experience if it was my first cruise or the Itinerary was better or the food was better or even if they had real food for room service. Celebrity spoiled me, I know.
