This is our 6th NCL cruise. And it was a nice cruise, and the ship was very nice, but it's just too large with too many people.

I will start with embarkment, ship was late being cleaned and we had an 11:00am embarkment time, didn't get on til after 12. That wasn't the real problem, it was they directed us to the rear of the terminal, with no real direction. Once we found the masses, got in the cattle line, they started calling numbers for people to get on. No one ever gave us a number, when I inquired the staff said "we have no more numbers!" I asked another gentleman he said you just have to wait til they call for the remainder of the people. Nope, wasn't willing to do that, I spoke to another line person, he said "I don't care get in line!" So we did, and got on and to our room relatively quickly.

The room was large enough for the three of us, and we had ample space for all our belongings. Only complaint with the room is they should put the divider curtain back in the rooms. The bathrooms are very nice, and large.

Cabin MA

Very nice, and fit three adults well. The bathrooms are nice, and the,beds were comfortable. Lots of storage, there ar extra drawers under the sofa bed, and two cabinets in the vanity. Each nite stand has cubbies for things. The safe was easy to use, and the closet had lots of space. You must however bring two items, a power strip, and an old hotel key card. The room lites do not work without a key card in the slit. We had an old hotel key card we left in our slit. Also the slider door must be closed and in the closed position to have a/c running. The power strip is a must because there's only two plugs. We did bring a night lite because the rooms are very dark for night potty calls.
