We chose this cruise because the price was good and we wanted to see the Panama Canal. Our previous cruise experiences were with Holland America where we were treated like royalty and fed like Kings! This NCL cruise was just the opposite: the staff were not welcoming (they hardly acknowledged us), the food had no taste, was repetitive and the menus were "meh"--stuff I make at home. Very disappointing. The cabins were OK (a little on the small side-especially the bathroom although the shower was surprisingly spacious), the entertainment was mediocre and the some things (like Bingo) were expensive. The Ports and Shore excursions (which is why we chose this cruise) were fun and interesting and we enjoyed them, so they salvaged the trip.

I doubt that I would not do a Norwegian Cruise again. There are too many cruise lines to choose from that will provide a better experience.
