General: We were traveling with a group of 7 other friends on this cruise.
Embarkation: Traffic getting to the pier was a total mess in NYC. We took a bus from Bethlehem, PA. It took over 1 1/2 hours to go from exit at Lincoln Tunnel to the pier. Mass confusion finding a porter. There were four ships in port. Huge line to wait for in the terminal, but it kept moving. Finally got through security and to the NCL sign-in area (Line to Security was both NCL and Carnival). Process stopped for 15 minutes while computers did a report. Line grew. We got on the ship to hear that lifeboat drill was in 15 minutes.
Cabin: There were a few small things about our cabin that I noticed. One was that one of the closet door hinges was starting to pull out of the side. The carpet needs a scrubbing. Other than that, the cabin was fine. There was plenty of storage space, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom serviceable. The little compartment for the toilet was a bit cramped for a big guy :). Shower was good.
