The itinerary for this cruise was excellent. Barcelona, Florence, Rome, Greece, Venice and others. The ship floor plan was an issue as the kids room on the 10th floor caused a lot of noise for those of us on the 9th. Others complained of the same issue with respect to the nightclub. So a word of advice, ask about what is above you when booking your cabin!!!!! Norwegian knows about this issue since the ship is older but can't or won't do anything about it. Walls were also very thin between the cabins.
Since this was our first cruise we did not know what to expect but overall felt good about it. Other guests we talked to said the buffet food was not as good as other lines. While food was available around the clock it was reduced and limited after around 9:00 p.m.
Staff is friendly and tries very hard and nightly entertainment was quite good.
Cabin was okay but walls are thin and the kids room above us was quite problematic at times due to the noise.
We embarked from Barcelona and arrived the day before. Nice city and getting in early removed some of the last minute stress.
