Was a let down for us, but may give them another chance later.

Cabin: Mid-Ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

We had a good time overall I will start with the good: Our cabin steward Christian was great, always greeted us by name. Room was always clean and well stocked. Embarkation was ok but had to ask which way to get on the boat then once on the boat there were the washy washy girls ready to spray ya down. I thought the layout of the boat was somewhat odd compared to other boats I had been on. I got turned around a couple times. We were able to access our rooms as soon as we got on the ship. I did like that there were shows every night of the cruise which was nice, but missed comedy shows like you have on carnival. This was our first time cruising with NCL. I did not really care for Second City too much but then again I don't like improv. Now what I really didn't like: You see the kids all over the boat and while I love kids I don't want to see them running around without any parents watching them, the food was horrible with the exception of the buffet breakfast, and the pool was really small. For these reasons I think we will stick with Carnival next time, sorry NCL. As for the ports all were very nice but we did have to cancel our excursion in Roatan because it came a monsoon there.

Cabin Review

Mid-Ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

Cabin MA

Loved the room and the balcony. Appropriate storage for two people. We had rough seas a couple nights and the closet doors kept opening and closing and waking us up. That needs to be addressed. Other than that the room was perfect, but tv selection was horrible hardly any channels you got fox news msnbc bbc a couple channels with movies that was it.
