We took the Inside Passage round trip Seattle cruise on the June12th sailing. My husband and I had previously sailed on NCL twice - in 2011 in Baltic and in 2013 in the Mediterranean and loved NCL. This time we brought my sister and my 18 year old handicapped niece with us. It was my sister's first time on NCL and my niece's first cruise. My travel agent and I spent a lot of time comparing cruises before deciding on this cruise primarily to make sure that this was the right cruise for my niece as it was her graduation present.

The embarkation process was very smooth. Overall, our cabin was an aft facing mini suite. We had plenty of room to maneuver in the room with the wheelchair. The bathroom was well designed. The only complaint we had was that there were four of us. The second bed was the couch. The couch was a hard couch and not comfortable to sit on - unlike the couches on our previous cruises. And, the bed it turned into was extremely hard and uncomfortable. I would compare it to sleeping on the floor except that I didn't have to get down on the floor. Plus, it was small for 2 adults.

Our room steward was great. He was quite responsive to our needs. And, I think we got an extra towel animal or two during the cruise. Read more
