When I boarded the Norwegian Sky ship and found my room (inside 10th floor, room #0134) we passed a fan drying the smelly carpet that smelled like dirty dish water most likely from the dishwasher backing up and flooding the hallway we had to smell the entire cruise on way to our room. Do not get a room on 10th floor below the buffets! Carts will be rolling all day and night and they tend to either drop stuff making loud noises waking you up. The ship is old and I think it’s time to retire this ship, not sure how they can keep putting band aids on everything and expect to have their special cruises in 2016 on this ship. There were cracks in glass all over the public areas and just sitting by the kids pool a pipe breaks and floods out control room behind it flooding onto the deck I was sitting on and closing the kiddie pool for the day. Took them 10 mins to realize to shut the water off!

I had to walk around every person who was working on the rooms who literally rushed in front of us to get what they needed off their cart causing me to squeeze between them and the cart in passing and not one of them asked me how I was or even said “hello”.

On day 3 of my cruise was the worst. I was woken up at 630 am by a loud machine and then found out it was routine maintenance being done which caused me to have no plumbing in my room for most of the day. When I complained to guest services they gave me a room to use the facilities until my plumbing was completed that was 2 floors down and opposite side of the ship. Later that day when I returned from the island I went out to look at my pictures after my shower and returned ten minutes later locked out of my room. I once again went down to guest services and they gave me 2 more cards to carry since they didn’t have drink stickers to put on my new cards, these didn’t work either. I walked down to guest services once again where the lady told me they should work and finally called “security” to come look at my door and it turned out the batteries were dead. This was waiting around and walking for 45 mins that I was hoping to be eating before the diner rush, which I missed out on and sat in a crowded dining room after waiting 10 mins to be seated.
