This is not a pretty or attractive ship. The casino is right in the middle where you have to walk past to navigate the ship. There are lines everywhere and you need to make reservations just to watch the shows. The tender ports are a nightmare since so many people want to get off. The bars and buffet are usually crowded. My kids had a line just to get the tube for the slide and another line for the water slide . They gave up. NCL changed rules about loyalty levels in their rewards program without notice. My Platinum level status lost some of the benefits I had earned! I had NO notice about these changes. Also, water cannot come aboard. Had to trash a case of water. Again, no notice. They just change rules!!! Food on the ship was just fair. They have many "charge" entrees on the menu in the regular dinningroom . They seem to nickle and dime everything . Now, if you get a bottle of house champagne as a reward, you are stuck with it. You cannot exchange it for a bottle of wine. They are cutting back on many nice things they used as to do. We were all very unhappy with this NCL cruise and the ship.

The cabin was small and very compact. It did have plenty of draw space. The shower and toilet area are too close
