We love Norwegian and got a great deal on a window cabin on deck 5. We usually get a balcony and we like the larger, newer ships but as I said, we got a good deal. We got 3 nights of specialty dining and ultimate beverage package so the porthole room was not so bad. Day 2 my wife wanted to play bingo and although I hate bingo, I agreed to play. The second game was for an upgrade to a Haven suite and she gets the X.....I couldn't believe it.

We were immediately whisked off to our room on 5 where we just dumped everything into our suitcases and whatever bags we had. Singing the theme from the Jefferson's, butler in tow we headed up to the Haven on 14!

It was unreal, we cruise often but the biggest room we've ever had was a Jr Suite which is just a glorified balcony room. This was gigantic in comparison; the bathroom area was literally bigger that our entire room on deck 5. There were 4 TVs throughout including one in the tub. The room came with a butler (thanks Teo) and personal concierge (thanks Elvina). We had breakfast and lunch in the Cagney's which was like 60 paces from our room.
