Itinerary was great, would have been better to have an extended duration in Rome - so much to see, not enough time. The main dining food was ok, specialty restaurants have better quality of food - not sure who the executive chef is, but the food quality wasn't high. Embarkation/disembarkation were very smooth considering the number of people trying to get on/off the cruise. Shore excursions (through NCL) are rather expensive. The cabin was nicely sized, but the bed was very short (our feet hung over the edge). There are issues with the water temperature controls throughout the ship (multiple cabins and all had scalding water that could not be moderated. Cabin steward was excellent - always willing to get anything and always made sure we were comfortable. Staff services were generally very good as were the shipboard activities. The ship is huge and we would go again, but probably on a smaller ship.
